Obioru reaffirmed his ambition during a solidarity visit to the Delta State ADC Chairman, Austine Okolie, at the party’s secretariat in Asaba.
Speaking with journalists after the meeting, Obioru said his visit underscored his loyalty to the ADC and his commitment to working closely with the party’s leadership to build a united and progressive Delta South.
“Our discussion centred on my ambition to run for the Delta South Senate seat in 2027; how to deepen cooperation and collaboration among party faithful, strengthen party structures, mobilize support across the eight local government areas of Delta South.
“To foster youth and women’s participation in politics, and pursue issue-based campaigns to tackle environmental degradation, unemployment, and underdevelopment,” he said.
The ADC Warri South Local Government Chairman, Excel Otonne Ololo, who attended the meeting, pledged support for Obioru’s bid, describing him as a “trusted and illustrious son of the soil” whose aspiration represents hope, inclusivity, and the promise of impactful representation.
