Breaking: PDP Governor Makes Stunning Move, Defects to APC, Video Emerges
Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, the governor of Delta state, has made a stunning political move as he dumped the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Arise TV in a tweet on Wednesday, April 23, announced the development, adding that the defection happened after a high-level, closed-door meeting, which was held at the government house in Asaba, the state capital, on Wednesday.
Governor Oborevwori of the PDP defeated the former Deputy Senate President, Ovie Omo-Agege of the APC, in the 2023 governorship election in the state.
However, he was said to have been received by APC chieftains in the state, a development which was described as a political realignment ahead of the 2027 general elections.
In another view shared by Channels TV on social media, the governor moved to the APC with his predecessor, who was the vice presidential candidate of the PDP in the 2023 election, Ifeanyi Okowa.
Others who defected alongside the governor to the ruling APC included all the commissioners and major PDP stakeholders in the oil-rich state.
