Senator Ned Nwoko is fighting hard to protect his Nwoko Delta North mandate — and he is not taking prisoners. GossipShop breaks it down fresh from Abuja this Sunday. The Delta North Senator has gone straight to APC’s national leadership with a bold demand.
Nwoko Claims Landslide Victory in Delta North Primary
Nwoko says he polled an enormous 123,000 votes in the Delta North Senatorial District primary. His closest rival, former Delta State governor Ifeanyi Okowa, reportedly managed just 6,000 votes. Let that sink in — that is a crushing difference of 117,000 votes.

Furthermore, Nwoko claims he won in 97 out of 98 wards across Delta North. He challenged his opponents to explain any figures that contradict this result. The senator says video recordings from every ward can independently verify his victory.
And here is the thing — Nwoko is not just talking quietly behind closed doors. His media office in Abuja released an official statement on Sunday. He is taking this fight very publicly and very seriously.
Nwoko Warns Against “Manufactured and Dubious Figures”
Nwoko directly warned against attempts to overturn the primary result. He accused opponents of promoting what he called “manufactured and dubious figures.” Those are strong words from a sitting senator.
However, the senator framed his fight as a democratic one. He argued that reversing his win would betray APC members who voted in large numbers. According to him, subverting their mandate would abuse their democratic sensibilities.
Nwoko specifically called on the APC National Working Committee to ensure justice prevails. He wants the party to respect the primary outcome and preserve its integrity. This is a direct appeal to the very top of the ruling party.
Meanwhile, the stakes are high for APC in Delta State ahead of future elections. Nwoko warned that undermining this process could damage the party’s fortunes. The party leadership now faces serious pressure to act decisively.
Consequently, political watchers across Delta State are paying close attention to APC’s next move. Any decision the party makes here sends a signal to every member across Nigeria. This is bigger than just one senator’s seat.
