Erhiatake Ibori-Suenu, member representing Ethiope Federal Constituency of Delta State in the House of Representatives and daughter of James Ibori, former Delta State Governor, has vowed to bury the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
The member of the House of Representatives also declared the political party dead in her constituency.
“The wind and lightning that will destroy PDP have arrived. We will bury the PDP in the Ologbo River, the bridge between Delta and Edo States,” she said.
Ibori-Suenu made this declaration during an empowerment programme where she distributed vehicles, motorcycles, sewing machines, and water pumps to residents of her constituency.
She said that her political alignment had always been with the All Progressives Congress (APC), which she described as the “supreme party” despite previously being a PDP member.
The lawmaker alleged that the PDP stifled her political aspiration and appreciated APC for welcoming her with open arms and the party’s support for her constituency.
“We are capable, and we will not disappoint Ethiope Federal Constituency. To the leadership of APC, I appreciate your support. God will bless you all, including my leaders Senator Ovie Omo-Agege and Hon. Halims Agoda,” she said.
PDP has experienced a large number of its party members defecting to APC, including Ibori-Suenu.
