Speaking with The Story, on Thursday June 24th 2021, in an exclusive telephone conversation, the former APC chieftain, disclosed that the continuous, constant, recklessness and endless crisis drove him from opposition.
“The continuous, constant, reckless and endless crisis for that matter. The crisis we started in 2014, lingered on to 2021 and now going to 2022.
“So, I am not ready to be in opposition I my state anymore”, he noted.
In his return letter to the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Okafor wrote: “It feels good to be back home after a long soujourn on the other side of the political battlefield. Indeed there is no place like home.
“My return to the PDP after a sabbatical seven years in the opposition party, I would say, is an act of divine intervention.
“While on my soujourn, I rose to the position of Chairman, APC Delta North, which position I resigned effective yesterday, Wednesday June 22, 2021, to return fully to my original family and home, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
“My decision to quit the APC was largely borne from my inner convictions that Delta APC has remained an unending battlefield without hope for respite.
“In Delta APC, “Things Will Continue To Fall Apart”; I do not see them coming together even beyond 2023.
“Today, I feel good coming back home to where I am loved, respected and appreciated. I thank the PDP family in Delta State for holding forth and firm since 1999.
“I want to specially thank His Excellency the Governor for keeping the party together, both in the state and the national level.
“Once again, I think you all for receiving me back to the fold”, he added.
