Since last year, the governor has been publicly expressing support for President Tinubu’s administration.

The announcement of his defection to the APC came after a high-level, closed-door meeting held at the Government House in Asaba, the state capital, on Wednesday evening. 

He was received by top APC chieftains in what is now being described as a strategic political realignment ahead of the 2027 general elections.

One of the top APC chieftains in the State and Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has hailed the governor for his political alignment with the ruling party.

“Today is the day the Lord has made in Delta State. Finally, finally, Delta is APC! 

“Thank you, Mr. President, for your leadership that has attracted the best to our Party. Thank you, my leader and Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, for your foresight and courage in taking this bold decision,” Keyamo wrote on X.
