Oborevwori ‘not hungry’ to abandon PDP, says commissioner

Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, is not in any way hungry to abandon the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) nor interested in fighting any political battles, the state’s Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads and Public Information), Mr Charles Aniagwu, has said.

Aniagwu, who was recently directed to oversee the State Information Ministry, said the government would steadfastly continue to respond to critics with massive project deliveries ahead of 2027.

He spoke specifically on the state of affairs at a press briefing held yesterday in Asaba, the state capital.

The Commissioner said Governor Oborevwori was not interested in any political fight but was focused on responding to critics with the delivery of many more viable projects.

“We have seen a whole lot of publications in different places, including those insinuating that he is leaving the PDP.

“Oborevwori is a very proud member of the Peoples Democratic Party. Today, Oborevwori is a clear leader among leaders of the party in Nigeria, and he is not in any way hungry to abandon the Peoples Democratic Party,” Aniagwu stated.

He remarked that Governor Oborevwori had kept faith with the continuation and completion of inherited projects while also initiating new ones.

“Having continued with the numerous projects he inherited, he is currently advancing the state with the completion of ongoing roads while also initiating more projects,” he added.

Aniagwu listed some of the inherited, ongoing, and completed projects including the Okpanam-Ibusa bypass; Beneku Bridge; Asaba/Ughelli dual carriageway, particularly Sector C1 and C2, Sector A, with repairs in Sector B, as well as the six-story High Court Complex in Asaba.
