Nwoko is contesting the party’s ticket alongside former Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, who defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the APC last year.

In a statement issued on Monday by the Director General of his campaign organisation, Ekene Kerry, Nwoko accused alleged agents of the state government of working to undermine the will of the people.

The statement claimed that despite Nwoko’s popularity, there was a deliberate effort by the Delta State government to block his emergence as the party’s candidate.

It further alleged that former Governor Okowa, who reportedly declared interest in returning to the Senate after his 2023 electoral defeat, was behind the move.

According to the campaign organisation, the panel set up to conduct the primary election had been compromised.

It alleged that officials at ward and local government levels were being used as returning officers to manipulate results in favour of Okowa, adding that there were attempts to ignore directives from the APC national headquarters regarding the collation and transmission of results to Abuja.

The group also claimed that supporters of Senator Nwoko were being intimidated and threatened with violence.

The campaign organisation called on the national leadership of the APC and security agencies to ensure a free, fair, and credible primary election.

It urged supporters in Delta North not to be intimidated, encouraging them to turn out in large numbers and vote peacefully for Nwoko in the upcoming primary.
