Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori has addressed the rumours about his purported plans to defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The denial was contained in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Sir Festus Ahon.
Ahon described the rumours as “unfounded and fabricated” by opposition elements in the state. According to Ahon, certain factions within the opposition are feeling threatened by Governor Oborevwori’s growing popularity and his efforts to foster connections across political lines.
The Governor’s spokesperson emphasized that Oborevwori has no intention of leaving the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), citing his wide acceptance within the party and his followership among well-meaning Deltans and residents.
Ahon noted that Governor Oborevwori remains focused on delivering the MORE Agenda to all Deltans, as promised during his electioneering campaigns. He urged Deltans to ignore the rumours, describing them as the handiwork of mischief makers and fifth columnists.
