I am the frontrunner of Delta State 2023 gubernatorial election- Oborevwori

Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has said he is a frontrunner in contesting the State governorship election in the 2023 general elections.

The Speaker who spoke through his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Dennis Otu, commended Deltans for their massive support for his gubernatorial race.

He berated a faceless author circulating a mischievous and malicious publication on his political aspiration.

Oborevwori asserted that he is still contesting the State governorship election in the 2023 general elections.

At no time have I been invited by any anti-graft agency for questioning of fraud-related issues

According to the malicious publication, he has been persuaded to step down to pave way for a better aspirant to pick the governorship ticket of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).”

The Speaker noted that the evil machination of the author is to deliberately promote falsehood and deceive Deltans.

“However, Deltans are wiser and cannot fall for such cheap blackmail,” he opined.

Oborevwori called on Deltans to ignore the wicked publication purporting that he has stepped down from the race, saying “politics should be issue-based and not attack personalities”.

The Speaker further said that at no time has he been invited by any anti-graft agency for questioning of fraud-related issues.
