Fresh results emerging from the ongoing All Progressives Congress (APC) senatorial primaries in Delta State show a major political upset, as former Delta State Governor Ifeanyi Okowa reportedly recorded a sweeping victory over Senator Ned Nwoko in several wards across Delta North Senatorial District.
One of the most talked-about results came from Ute-Okpu Ward 9 in Ika North East Local Government Area, where Senator Ned Nwoko secured only three votes, while Senator Ifeanyi Okowa polled an overwhelming 6,922 votes during the APC primary election.
The outcome has sparked widespread reactions among party supporters and political observers, with many describing the result as a clear indication of Okowa’s strong grassroots influence and political dominance in the region.
According to reports from the ongoing exercise, Senator Okowa has continued to record impressive victories across multiple wards in Delta North, leaving Ned Nwoko trailing heavily behind in the contest for the APC senatorial ticket.
Political analysts believe the massive margin highlights the deep support base enjoyed by the former governor, especially within key voting blocs across the district. The development has also intensified conversations about the future political strength of Senator Ned Nwoko within Delta politics.
Images and videos circulating online allegedly showed a noticeable difference in the number of supporters present for both aspirants during the voting process, further fueling discussions on social media about the outcome of the primary election.
