The party threatened to wage its big stick on the organizers and their supporters. The grassroot organizers of the rally in the state, led by a chieftain of the party, Chief Emmanuel Adigwe, supported by Chuks Erhire, in Asaba yesterday.

accused the state’s party Chairman, Elder Omeni Sobotie of anti-party activities and acting the script of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, who has joined coalition forces to unseat Tinubu in 2027.

He said Sobotie was deliberately sabotaging President Tinubu’s political fortune, having being an.ardent loyalist of the former Vice President Atiku when he was the Senior Special Political Adviser to former Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan in PDP.

He said, “The solidarity walk is a show of unity and support for President Tinubu ahead of 2027 polls. The state Chairman, Elder Omeni Sobotie, is Atiku’s mole in Delta APC.” He directed the party’s Publicity Secretary, Valentine Onojeghuo, to ban and labelled the the planned rally as ‘unauthorized and unsanctioned.”
