A political pressure group within the All-Progressive Con­gress (APC) in Ughelli South local Government Area, otherwise known as Ughelli South Politi­cal Colonels (USPC) has unanimously endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the governor of Delta State, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori for second term.

The group, led by the chairman, who is also the Secretary to the Ughelli South Local Government, Chief John Ewenede, and the Publicity Secretary, Matthew Kwode made the declaration during their visit to the Execu­tives of the All-Progressive Congress (APC) in Ughelli South Local Government Area at Oginibo in Ugh­ievwe kingdom, recently.

Chief Ewenede, who spoke at the event, said the visit was to formally inform the party execu­tives of the APC in Ughelli South of the group’s ex­istence and as well state their mission.

According to Chief Ewenede, the Ughelli South Political Colonels (USPC), “is a disciplined political pressure group within the All-Progres­sives Congress (APC), committed to advancing the party’s progressive ideals in Ughelli South Local Government Area (LGA) of Delta State. The group seeks to strengthen party cohesion, empower the grassroots, and pro­mote issue-based political engagement across the lo­cal government area.

He added that the group was saddled with a cred­ible vision,” To become the leading grassroots politi­cal force within the APC in Delta State—renowned for principled leadership, inclusive governance, grassroots mobilization, and the promotion of sus­tainable development in Ughelli South local govern­ment area and beyond.”

Chief Ewenede said mem­bership was open to all reg­istered APC members in Ughelli South, who align with the vision of the group and support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, Gov­ernor of Delta State as the preferred candidates of the All-Progressives Congress (APC) in the forthcoming 2027 general elections.

Responding on behalf of the APC executives in Ughelli south, Olorogun Isaiah Keke­je, expressed delight over the visit, stating that with the caliber of members in the USPC, it stands out as a significant political pressure group in the area.
