Gov. Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta has formally defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progress Congress (APC).
With this development all speculation about Gov. Oborevwori’s defecting to the APC has been put to rest.
Sen. James Manager announced the defection in Asaba on Wednesday during a media briefing at the Government House.
Manager said a formal declaration would be made on Monday.
He said that the governor’s defection to the ruling party was for the interest and the overall development of Delta state.
According to Manager, the entire PDP structures in the state had been collapsed to the APC.
Given the current development, Delta State is now an APC state.
Present at the briefing were Gov. Sheriff Oborevwori, the immediate past Gov. Ifeanyi Okowa, Speaker of the state house of assembly, Hon. Emomotimi Guor and other PDP stalwarts.
