2023: Oborevwori’s Credibility, Loyalty And Goodwill Provokes Rain Of Endorsements
By Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe Esq
The credibility and goodwill nurtured across Delta State over the years by the crown Prince of Government House, Rt Hon Sheriff Oboreveori, JP, will surely make way for him as many more endorsements are expected from now till the day of party primaries.
Delta legislators, Delta Political Vanguard, DPV, Urhobo People in Diasporas, Coalition of Political Parties in Delta State, and several other groups have already adopted Oborevwori, as their 2023 governorship candidate.
Oborevwori, has touched many lives in various ways without making noise about his large heart for giving and humanitarian projects. From scholarships to setting up small scale businesses for constituents to wealth and job creation across board for our teeming youth, women, the less privileged, people living with disability, indigents and party faithfuls across the three senatorial districts.
It is on record that many years ago Speaker Oborevwori, as a youth fought vigorously for the establishment of the Osubi Airstrip in his community and extensively mobilized stakeholders to protect the star project which also provided jobs and created enormous wealth for people in Osubi community and hundreds of Deltans from construction stages to the present day.
The Ukodo of Okpe Kingdom (Oborevwori) is fully in the business of making life better for the people irrespective of tribe or ethnic nationality. He is a core Pan Delta politician, leader, socialite, titled palace Chief, a great philanthropist and a devoted Christian.
Various airlines now operate into the Osubi airstrip. He worked closely with Gov Okowa and other stakeholders to ensure the reopening of the Airstrip recently. The facility was closed down for a long time over unpaid charges and operational technicalities. Sheriff worked very hard with Gov Okowa and other senior government officials for resumption of flight operations into Osubi.
Oborevwori had in time past mobilized for past governors of Delta State and other categories of political actors who at one time or the other contested various elective offices, from Ward to Local government, state and federal elections. It’s payback time and Mr Speaker will bountifully reap good fruits he sowed into peoples lives.
Mr Speaker is a giver to a fault and those who came in contact with him for one reason or the other have testimonies to share. He is truly a Pan Deltan, reliable, trustworthy, tactful, prudent manager of resources, very firm, a devoted christian, responsible and above all, he fears God. He will partner were the Church of God across denominations for the spiritual upliftment of Deltans and the state.
Oborevwori constituents are ready to lay down their lives for him, because of his kind heart. He purchased several buses, cars and Keke for so many Deltans which today upscaled their living standards; some of them are now successful transporters, scholars, hairdressers, fashion designers, caterers, successful business men and women, and so on and so forth.

Mr Speaker’s track records as the longest serving Speaker of the State House of Assembly is simply amazing. The House was in chaos and in near disarray, prompting lawmakers to revolt, a development which led to his election by members to be the Speaker.
There has been no confirmed cases of unscrupulous activities under his leadership except few propaganda and falsehood peddled against him by those who are not comfortable with his rising political and leadership profile. His stewardship as speaker has been transparent, forthright, progressive, excellent and unblemished.
Before he assumed office, legislators wore heavy faces but the story changed dramatically for the better within few months and was he was unanimously reelected as Speaker for the 7th Assembly, making him the longest serving Speaker in the state since 1999.
Delta legislators were the first to adopt Mr Speaker as their governorship candidate, followed by the entire workforce of DTHA. The workers call him “Daddy’ because he cares for them like their biological father. The entire workforce quickly organised DTHA SHERIFFIED GROUP to mobilize for the governorship ambition of their hero, father, brother and partner in progress, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, JP.
It follows that everywhere you go, you are bound to hear all manner of positive testimonies about the good deeds of Mr Speaker, for different people at diverse times across the three senatorial districts.
Our amiable governor, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Okowa, is not the type of individual who hurriedly choose his friends and associates. He is like the meticulous and highly resourceful Eagle bird. He watches from afar like the Eagle looking down from 35,000 feet above sea level. He identified the special leadership qualities; maturity, sense of humour, loyalty, humility, team work spirit, et al and start grooming him for greater tasks and responsibilities ahead.
The governor got to love the pedigree, self esteem, loyalty, headwork and other enviable dispositions of Mr Speaker. His commitment and dedication to duty as the number three citizen of the state has been remarkable. Today, Mr Speaker and the governor are partners in progress and enjoys robust work relationship while sustaining their independent as heads of separate arms of government enshrined in the constitution.
Deltans will certainly enjoy Oborevwori’s tenure as governor. He will take the Strangor Delta agenda to a higher level and it is foreseeable that Delta shall experience remarkable progress and massive development in his time as number one citizen of our dear state.
In the next couple of days and weeks, some governorship aspirants will step down for Mr Speaker, several groups and prominent Deltans shall declare their support for him while ethnic nationalities and unions shall adopt him as their governorship candidate.
The rain of endorsement for Mr speaker will keep pouring in till the day of party primaries. Political observers say Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori shall win the primaries and the election with wide margin, by the grace of God.
Mr Speaker is the REAL DEAL.
Look note further, be SHERIFFIED.
Stronger Delta, Let’s Build Together.
