The All Progressives Congress has stepped up campaign in Delta State, wooing political leaders and the electorate with their message on the need for the state to remain in alignment with the Federal Government.

Since 1999, Delta State has been under the control of the Peoples Democratic Party, which has been in charge of the Federal Government in the past 16 years.

Following the defeat of the PDP at the presidential election by the APC, the Publicity Secretary of the APC in Delta, Prof. Isaac Adakpo, told our correspondent that it was also time for change in the state.

Adakpo said the partys campaign in the past one week had focused on the need for the state not to in opposition with the centre and the need for change.

He said, We have been moving into the communities speaking to the people, giving them the reasons why Delta State should not be in opposition with the centre and the need to have a change.

Since the centre has given us the impetus for change, we need the change too because the 16 years of the PDP administration in Delta State has not paid off. We are trying our best to sell all our candidates, particularly the governorship candidate. We hope the people will respond positively to us.

Adakpo added that the APC in Delta had not received politicians defecting openly from the PDP in large numbers because of the political complexity of the state.

He said, We havent received such defections openly. Delta is a very complex state. People have been with the PDP administration all these years. A few PDP leaders in the Ndokwa nation and parts of Urhobo are making overtures. We are welcoming them with open arms. Nobody wants to come out in the open but of course they will be good moles for us on April 11.
