Fresh controversy has erupted within the Delta State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) following the disputed senatorial primary for Delta North, as supporters of Senator Ned Nwoko rejected the outcome declaring former governor Ifeanyi Okowa winner of the contest.
Addressing journalists yesterday in Abuja on behalf of the Nwoko camp, the Senator’s political associate and Legal Adviser, Dr. Chris Okobah, alleged that the primary election conducted on May 18 was marred by widespread irregularities, intimidation, inducement of delegates and manipulation of results.
