SCOOP! STELLA ODUAH SET TO RETURN TO PDP, PICKS UP PDP SENATE FORM

Oduah after picking PDP form

There are big signs that Senator representing Anambra North at the senate Stella Oduah may be having  big problems over her reelection bid and may soon return to her PDP fold from APGA.

Signs of the problem were exposed when she was conspicuously absent as Governor Obiano visited internally displaced persons of Ogbaru, her home LGA who are currently being sacked by flooding of the River Niger.

Many believed that as a top member of APGA,  Oduah should have been at the venue to welcome the governor.

When people started asking why she was absent, some of her aides answered in manners that suggested that things were no longer right in the relationship.

ECD investigations revealed that her problems started when Governor Willy Obiano announced that there will be free and fair primaries in the party and no imposition of candidates.

To make matters worse, it was further learnt that she was stopped from picking APGA delegates forms which is a prerequisite for any aspirant and when she sought the opinion of the governor who is alleged to have given his word to reciprocate her support during the governorship elections, Obiano was alleged to have said his hands were tied.

Insiders say the visibly distraught senator and former minister for aviation who had been powering on with her campaign and empowerment across the nooks and crannies of Anambra North was forced to postpone indefinitely some of her empowerment programmes and already picked up PDP senatorial form earlier today.

Since her decamping into APGA, Oduah had been running a big battle of pacifying old loyal and faithful APGA members who worried that a new entrant should not just come and usurp their original places in a party they have been building as a family for many years now.

Stay tuned for more detail as it unfolds
