...Score The Governor High on Infrastructural Development
Chairmen of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 25 Local Government Area of Delta State have applauded Governor Sheriff Oborevwori for what they described as his outstanding performance in office.
They stressed that his developmental strides and inclusive governance have continued to earn him the pride and respect of Deltans across party lines.
Speaking to journalists on Friday after a meeting with the governor at Government House, Asaba, the APC Chairman of Aniocha South and coordinating chairman of party chairmen in Delta North, Mr. Norbert Sochukwudinma, said the visit was aimed at briefing the governor on developments across their various local government areas.
“We have come to see our father, our amiable governor, the leader of the party in the state, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori. Our meeting with him was fruitful, basically to give him feedback on the goings-on in our LGAs,” Akachukwu stated.
According to him, the integration process of the party across the 25 local governments has reached an advanced stage.
“In our various LGAs, things are going on very well. The integration is fully activated. As a matter of fact, we have crossed 80 percent, and within the next few days we should be running into 90 and 100 percent. All 25 APC local government chairmen were present at this meeting and no one was missing,” he said.
On the strength of the opposition in Delta, Akachukwu maintained that the APC remained formidable, adding that no other party posed a real threat.
“With what we have today, there is no political party in Delta State that is serious or strong enough to challenge us.
"But whether ADC or any other party, we are strong enough to beat them in a free, fair and credible election. There is no cause for alarm,” he stressed.
He praised Governor Oborevwori for his commitment to infrastructural development, citing completed and ongoing multi-billion-naira projects being executed across the state by reputable contractors.
“Governor Oborevwori has been a known performer. The projects across the state speak for themselves, and he is only getting better.
"Now that he is working directly and closely with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, things are even better than they were before. We are very proud of him, and Deltans are proud of him,” Akachukwu added.
