Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, has formally announced his defection from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC). The decision was made public following a private meeting held at the Government House in Asaba.
Governor Oborevwori, who was elected under the PDP banner in the 2023 gubernatorial elections, stated that his move to the APC followed extensive consultations with political leaders and stakeholders, aimed at advancing the long-term development of Delta State.
The governor’s defection was met with a warm reception by key APC figures, marking a pivotal moment in the state’s political landscape. Political analysts suggest that this shift is not only a personal realignment for Oborevwori but could also have significant ramifications in the lead-up to the 2027 general elections, with observers noting the potential for shifting power dynamics in the region.
This move comes amid growing political realignments across Nigeria, as politicians increasingly seek strategic partnerships to strengthen their positions for future contests.
