    Delta: Oborevwori, Okowa, Supporters Dump PDP For APC

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

    The announcement came on Wednesday after a closed-door meeting held at the Government House in Asaba.

    Confirming the move, the Governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Sir Festus Ahon, said the decision came after “wide consultations with political stakeholders and in the interest of Delta’s long-term development.”

    In a related development, Oborevwori’s predecessor, Ifeanyi Okowa has also announced his defection to the APC.

    Okowa, the 2023 PDP vice presidential candidate, announced his decision to join the APC following an enlarged stakeholders’ meeting held at the Government House in Asaba.

    The announcement was made on Wednesday in Asaba, the Delta State capital, by Senator James Manager, shortly after a meeting that lasted over six hours at Government House, Asaba.

    Manager stated, “All PDP members in the state, including the governor, former Governor Okowa, the Speaker, the state party chairman, all the local government chairmen and others, have agreed to move to the APC.

    “We cannot continue to be in a sinking boat,” he said.

    The development marks a significant political shift in Delta State.
