There are indications that a former Governor of Delta State, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, will be dumping the All Progressives Congress soon.

Uduaghan was a two-term governor of Delta State on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party from 2007 to 2015.

He defected to the All Progressives Congress in 2018, contesting the election for Delta North Senatorial District in 2019 on the platform.

He left the PDP after a fallout with his successor, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, who was elected on the platform of the same party.

However, sources said Uduaghan has come under pressure from his cousin and former Governor of Delta State, James Ibori, to return to the party they all founded together.

Ibori was in a London prison serving time for corruption when the PDP in Delta State, ruptured.

Since he returned to the country, He was said to have been insisting on the return of Uduaghan to the party.
