Governor of Delta State, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has officially defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

The announcement was made following a closed-door meeting at the Government House in Asaba on Wednesday evening.

The Governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Sir Festus Ahon, who confirmed the decision said the decision was reached after “wide consultations with political stakeholders and in the interest of Delta’s long-term development.”

Oborevwori, who emerged victorious in the 2023 gubernatorial election under the PDP platform, was received by senior APC officials in what political analysts are already describing as a strategic realignment with significant implications ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Oborevwori is a solid guy.

With Tinubu and APC at the helm, Delta will surely feel the impact of the government.

Lack of political ideology
PDP is dead and nothing can bring it back. My brother Fubara will be ing APC soon, Baysela will be ing soon after Jonathan approval.
RIP PDP
Atiku over to you

Very good!

This is a problem for Ned the Lizard (Ned Nwoko) and Omo Agege who allegedly betrayed President Tinubu in the Delta.

Welcome aboard Sheriff!

Who wouldn't disembark from the sinking ship called PDP?

W

Delta state is already APC

So Delta was not feeling the impact of government before Don't forget all Delta ex governor's are now in APC

Labour Party is not worth defecting to ?

Congrats to the smart Governor,
Kudos to APC national chairman, Abdullah Ganduje.

God bless APC and Federal Republic of Nigeria.


Obidents how far

I like how southerners are coming together regardless of political affiliations,, Northerners will learn the hard way

WOW

No longer Atiku/Obi?

Atiku cannot hold that office twice.

It's sad that it is so easy for Nigerian politicians to start planning for the next election 2 years ahead, but to deliver basic dividends of democracy, they are always clueless and without plans on how to better the lives of the people.

Bunch of useless people; the only thing on their heads is winning the election, with no strategy for governance or how to improve the living standard of the common man, just how to align for their own personal gain to win election. ENKR!

APC now controls Cross River
Edo
Delta
Akwa ibom
Rivers

South South loves Tinubu and come 2027 we will give Tinubu 90% of our votes.

Wike na man you be

Waow!
That was a very sudden move

Two other PDP governors will APC.

Atiku need to step down or leave PDP for good. Everybody is against him and he wants to force himself on PDP
