He assured delegates and members of the Senatorial district of good representation, while also promising to unite the two factions of the party in the state.

“I’m happy about the affirmation. I was ready for it. When the final report came up, I was cleared and I’m happy for affirmation.

“Be assured of quality representation. By God’s grace, I’ll win the election. You know, that in Delta, APC has never won any election. We need to come together.

“I’m going to bring everybody together by God’s grace. After the primaries, there’ll be no faction, all of us will be one.

“Those not part of the system I’ll bring them in so as to move the party forward,” Uduaghan
