UGHELLI—IMMEDIATE past Deputy Governor of Delta State, Prof Amos Utuama SAN, weekend, admitted the vulnerability of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, after its defeat at the last presidential election, but expressed optimism that the party will bounce back in 2019.

Utuama, at a reception held in his honour by the leadership of the party at his Otu-Jeremi country home, in Ughelli South Local Government Area of the state, urged party faithful to remain steadfast, saying:

“Even though we are very vulnerable now considering the fact that we have been in power in the last 16 years, and we are no longer in the presidency and we have lost some states.”
