The visit, attended by party stakeholders and community groups, featured moments where Rita Daniels was seen dancing and engaging with attendees, a display that quickly gained traction on social and political platforms.

Reports from political aides suggested she expressed support during the event, although no official statement has been issued by Rita Daniels to confirm or clarify her position.

The appearance has generated public interest due to her family connection with Senator Ned Nwoko, a prominent political figure in Delta State who is also linked to ongoing political activities in the region.

The development comes amid ongoing public attention surrounding personal and family disputes involving actress Regina Daniels, which have previously drawn media scrutiny.

Observers note that celebrity participation in political gatherings often attracts heightened attention in Delta State politics, where public figures frequently influence grassroots perception.

Reactions have since emerged across social media, with opinions divided on the significance of Rita Daniels’ presence at the event and what it may signal within the broader political landscape.

At the time of reporting, neither Rita Daniels nor representatives from the Okowa political camp had issued formal clarification regarding the nature of her involvement.
