The Chairman and CEO of Ibru Organization, Olorogun Oskar Eyovbirere Ibru, has called for a united support for the re-election of president Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, Governor of Delta State in 2027 general elections.
Olorogun Oskar Ibru made this call at the Ughelli North Unity Meeting for Gov Sheriff Oborevwori held Oharisi Primary School field in Ughelli North Local Government Area of Delta State.
Speaking at the event, Olorogun Oskar Ibru said, “The things I wanted to do for Deltans are the what Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori is currently doing now as at when I contested for the governorship seat 18-years ago.
“Today, I am here to appeal to the people of Ughelli North to join hands with our state Governor, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori to move the state forward because he is a good guy.
The meeting, brought together APC stakeholders, grassroots mobilisers, youth leaders, and party loyalists in a renewed show of commitment to party cohesion and electoral victory.
According to Olorogun Ibru, “There is need for unity and strategic mobilisation to secure a second term for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori.
“Both leaders are reform-driven patriots whose policies are laying the groundwork for sustainable development in Nigeria and Delta State.
“This is not the time for division. It is time to come together, set aside differences, and support those who have shown genuine commitment to progress. President Tinubu has made tough but necessary decisions to reposition the economy, and Governor Oborevwori has been exemplary in infrastructural development and youth empowerment.
“We are out here today to celebrate a man who is doing what I would have done 18 years ago when I ran for the governorship of the state. The Governor has been wonderful. I call him Sheriff with confidence, he is a man of peace and positive action.
“The Governor is someone who has gone through all stages of political development. He is a gentleman and honourable in his conduct. He has a listening ear.
“I dislike when people say the Governor defected, he knows what he is doing and what is best for you, for me, and for Deltans.
“I pray that we all cooperate with him by working for his re-election and that of the President come 2027. Actions speak louder than words, and from what he has done so far, it’s clear that the Governor came prepared for the business of governance.”
Ibru charged party faithful in Ughelli North to intensify grassroots engagement, support ongoing government initiatives, and uphold discipline within party ranks to ensure sweeping victories in 2027.
In his welcome remarks, Chairman of Ughelli North Local Government Council, Olorogun Jaro Egbo, said the party was united in the area.
“We are consolidating the unity of our party and we are determined to deliver 85 percent of Ughelli North votes for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and our dear Governor of Delta State, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori,” he stated.
