Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori Dumps PDP, Defects to APC
In a stunning political twist, Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has officially defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The announcement came after a high-level, closed-door meeting held at the Government House in Asaba, the state capital, on Wednesday evening.
Governor Oborevwori, who won the 2023 gubernatorial election under the PDP platform, was received by top APC chieftains in what is now being described as a strategic political realignment ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Prior to his defection to APC, Oborevwori was among the PDP governors who attended the PDP governors meeting held in Ibadan, Oyo State where they rejected the proposed coalition to unseat President Tinubu in 2027.
