He congratulated the newly elected executives and urged them to remain committed to party unity, discipline, and grassroots mobilization in line with the administration’s development-driven vision.

He assured that the new executive would work tirelessly to strengthen the APC structure in the local government.
Other leaders who spoke at the occasion, including Rt. Hon. Mercy Alumona-Isei, Hon. Barrister Possible Ajede, and Rt. Hon. Christopher Ochor, lauded Governor Oborevwori for what they described as inclusive leadership, describing him as “first among equals.” They also commended his MORE Agenda, noting that it has accelerated infrastructural development across the nooks and crannies of Delta State.
The event ended on a note of unity and renewed commitment, as party leaders and faithful pledged continued support for the governor and the APC in Ukwuani Local Government Area.
