Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has officially left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and joined the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

According to Vanguard, the announcement came after a closed-door meeting held at the Government House in Asaba on Wednesday. The Governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Sir Festus Ahon, confirmed the development in a phone call with the publication.

Governor Oborevwori, who won the 2023 election under the PDP banner, said his decision followed wide consultations with political stakeholders and was aimed at ensuring Delta State’s long-term growth. He was received by top APC leaders in what observers see as a significant political shift ahead of the 2027 general elections.
