It is no fallacy to say that the party, the All Progressives Congress, APC in Delta State had been factionalised and disunited these sundry years. As the popular saying goes “A house divided amongst itself cannot stand”.The APC has to go into the gubernatorial race in 2023 with a united front and to rally around a common candidate whosoever emerges as the flag bearer of the party. The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, having been in governance since the inception of the 4thRepublic have developed tap roots which would require a quantum of force to dislodge.
