The Benue State Deputy Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the immediate past State Chairman of PDP in Benue, Hon Sir John Ngbede, has assured thousands of APC, Labour Party members from Obagaji, Usha all in Agatu and others from Accord Party and APC in Apa, who defected from the opposition parties to PDP of equal treatment, saying they Decampees have taken the right decisions by joining the ruling PDP.

According to sir Ngbede, Benue is PDP and PDP is Benue, hence the need to join forces together with the party to emerge victorious come 2023 adding that the party’s victory is sacrosanct, assuring the Decampees that they won’t regret their decisions.
