NewDigitalWorld:
Former Minister of Niger Delta Affairs and All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain in Delta State, Elder GodsDay Orubebe, has welcomed Governor Sheriff Oborevwori and the PDP family into the APC, noting that the decision of the Governor to join the APC is very key to the development of Delta State.

Orubebe described the defections at this time in our nation’s political history as a courageous and strategic step that reflects a commitment to the progress and unity of Delta State and Nigeria as a whole.

The former Minister, who stated this in a statement, noted that in the past 20 months in office Governor Oborevwori has demonstrated capacity and shown that he is a Governor for all Deltans.

The statement reads: “I warmly welcome the Executive Governor of Delta State, His Excellency Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, and the PDP Family into the All Progressives Congress (APC). Their decision to join the APC at this pivotal time in our nation’s political history is a courageous and strategic step that reflects a commitment to the progress and unity of Delta State and Nigeria as a whole.

“Governor Oborevwori has demonstrated uncommon leadership and commitment to the development of Delta State. I particularly commend his bold steps in infrastructure development, which have had direct and positive impacts on the lives of ordinary Deltans.

“Governor Oborevwori’s positive decisive action in the reconstruction of the long-abandoned Ohorhor-Bomadi Road is more than a Blessing to our people. That road, which generations of leaders had promised to fix but abandoned is finally receiving the attention it deserves under his watch. The Ijaw people are happy and will not forget this.

“Since assuming office, Governor Oborevwori has shown himself to be a listening leader—one who is genuinely attuned to the yearnings and aspirations of the people. This has been evident in his consultative approach to governance and his willingness to prioritize projects that directly affect the grassroots. His brand of inclusive leadership is what we in the APC welcome and embrace, as we work to build a stronger, more united Delta.

“The engagement of Julius Berger—a globally renowned construction firm—for major road infrastructure and ultra-modern flyovers is another commendable milestone. For the first time in the history of Delta State, we are seeing such a reputable company being engaged to deliver world-class projects. This bold move alone sets Governor Oborevwori apart and sends a strong message about his commitment to quality and long-term infrastructural development.

“As a chieftain of the APC in Delta State and a former Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, I understand the immense challenges that come with leadership. I also know the significance of having experienced, tested, and development-oriented leaders within our fold. The entrance of Governor Oborevwori and other PDP Leaders into the APC brings new energy, fresh perspectives, and a wealth of experience that will surely strengthen our party ahead of 2027.

“This is not the time for division, but for unity. We must all close ranks, put aside political differences, and focus on what truly matters—the welfare of our people and the future of Delta State. The APC in Delta is big enough to accommodate everyone, and I am confident that together, with Sheriff Oborevwori and other progressive leaders, we will chart a new and greater course for our state.

“Once again, I wholeheartedly welcome His Excellency Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori and Other PDP Leaders and Members. I urge all APC members across the state to open their hearts and arms to these new entrants. Let us build bridges, not walls, and focus on delivering the dividends of democracy to our people.

Iampromoted:
Stop the misinformation as it's clear you are not from Delta State. Godsday Orubebe decamped from the PDP to the APC long before Sheriff was made the PDP Candidate. He was actually the DG of Ovie Omo-Agege's governorship campaign organization.

ponishah:
Oh, you want to defend political clowns, I pity you.
Orubebe decamped because Okowa was bent on single handedly producing the Huber candidate of PDP and because okowa insisted on urhobo candidacy against ijaw candidacy against the wish of orubebe and e.k. clerk.

I had to browse it to be sure it was the same man
