Former Delta Rep Ossai dumps PDP for APC, Vows to Deliver Delta in 2027


By Aviashima Toom, Abuja 


A former member of the House of Representatives from Delta State, Hon. Dr. Ossai Nicholas Ossai, has dumped the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ossai, who represented the Ndokwa/Ukwuani Federal Constituency of Delta State for three consecutive terms from 2011 to 2023, cited the need to align with a party he believes is better positioned to serve his constituents, Delta State, and Nigeria as a whole.

During his tenure in the National Assembly, Ossai held key leadership positions, including Chairman of the House Committee on Ethics and Privileges in the 8th Assembly and Chairman of the House Committee on Treaties, Protocols, and Agreements in the 9th Assembly.

Ossai expressed deep dissatisfaction with the direction of the PDP, describing it as “rudderless, cantankerous, envious, and lacking vision.”

He stated: “After deep reflection and wide consultations with my family, political leaders, supporters, and associates, I have decided to resign from the PDP and heed the patriotic call to join the largest progressive family in Africa, the APC.”

Ossai emphasized that his move was driven by a commitment to good governance and national development.

“I entered politics to work for positive change, to uplift the voiceless, and to attract development to Ndokwa, Delta State, and Nigeria. I believe in sustainable progress that will impact generations to come,” he said.

He further said he joined APC to be part of the teamwork of the party that is already shaping Nigeria towards agricultural revolution, adding that he is happy with all the APC governors who have gone into the agricultural sector.

While expressing his happiness for being accepted into the party, Hon. Ossai vowed to work with the leadership of the party at the grassroots and ensure APC takes over Delta State in 2027.

“To start with, APC will take over the State House of Assembly in my local government, which I will produce by his grace.

“APC will take over my Federal Constituency, where I’ve spent 12 years to consolidate the structures of APC in that place.

“So I believe that we are seeing progress and lights in APC in Delta State because strong leaders make strong organizations and make strong societies”, he said.
