He said: “Yes, I can confirm to you that the immediate past Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly have yielded to pressure on him to represent the people of Sapele, Okpe and Uvwie in the green chambers.”
He submitted his form at the APC headquarters, Abuja having met the needed requirements of the party.
