In a major political development, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta State has reportedly informed members of his cabinet, local government chairmen, and party stakeholders of his decision to defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to a credible source familiar with the matter, the governor made the announcement during a closed-door meeting held earlier today, signaling a significant shift in Delta State’s political landscape.
The source revealed that Governor Oborevwori’s formal induction into the APC is scheduled to take place on Monday, April 28, 2025.
In what appears to be a coordinated political migration, all appointed officials, including PDP ward executives, local government and state party executives, as well as other political appointees, have reportedly been instructed to begin obtaining their APC membership cards ahead of the governor’s formal defection.
This development, if confirmed officially, is expected to send ripples through the PDP’s structure in Delta State and the South-South region, where the party has maintained significant influence over the years.
As of the time of filing this report, there has been no official statement from Governor Oborevwori or the PDP in Delta State. Full Details
