Image
At the mega rally for the movement of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori and the Delta State PDP family into the APC, President Bola Tinubu, represented by Vice President Ibrahim Shettima, was clear, that by constitution and tradition, the Governor becomes the leader of the party, thenceforth. Governor Oborevwori himself clearly understood the condition of the new party and the demand on him, thus declaring right on the spot that he would not give room for factionalism, the malaise that had stunted the Delta APC for years. Before the movement, the Delta APC had been embroiled in a fierce battle of leadership. The most recent tussle was between the former Deputy Senate President, Ovie Omo-Agege, and the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace, Festus Keyamo SAN, but the cracks resulting from a plethora of internal grieviances and suspicions had consigned the party in smithereens across the 25 local government areas and in various zones of the state. Thus, Oborevwori had his task well cut out: not...
