2027 Delta Guber: Ogboru’s Global Influence, Business Network Will Transform Delta If….. – ADC

The Publicity Secretary of the Delta State Chapter of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Mr. Fred Akpewe has said the governorship candidate of the party, Chief Great Ovedje Ogboru will no doubt use his global influence and business network to transform Delta State if given maximum support.

The Delta State Publicity Secretary, Mr. Fred Akpewe, made this statement while speaking to Journalists, saying that as the state prepares for the 2027 governorship election, voters are increasingly looking beyond political rhetoric to the qualities that define effective leadership.

At the heart of that conversation is the need for a leader who possesses the right combination of competence, character, courage and charisma—the four pillars of enduring leadership.

Supporters of Chief Great Ovedje Ogboru had argued that he embodies these four essential qualities, which he has thrown emphasis on and highlighted as follows

Competence: A successful entrepreneur and administrator, Ogboru has built businesses, created employment opportunities and managed complex organizations over several decades. His supporters believe this experience has equipped him with the managerial capacity required to improve governance, strengthen institutions and promote sustainable economic development in Delta State.

Character: In politics, integrity and consistency matter. Ogboru has remained steadfast in his political convictions despite numerous electoral setbacks and changing political landscapes. His supporters see this resilience and commitment as evidence of a leader driven by principle rather than convenience.

Courage: Few politicians in Delta State have demonstrated the determination that Ogboru has shown throughout his political journey. He has repeatedly challenged entrenched political structures, contested elections despite formidable odds, and continued to advocate for what he believes to be a better future for the state. Such persistence reflects a willingness to stand firm in the face of adversity.

Charisma: Leadership is also about inspiring confidence and bringing people together. Over the years, Ogboru has maintained a loyal support base across different ethnic groups and communities in Delta State. His ability to connect with people, communicate a vision and inspire hope has remained one of his defining political strengths.

Great Ogboru is a man of likeable personality. For anyone who comes across him one cannot but be inspired by his natural kindness and his uncanny ability to make friends easily . In a complex state like Delta with a multiplicity of tribes and languages , we need a detribalized man like Ogboru to navigate across the different senatorial districts of Delta State.

Luckily providence has made him a multi-cultured person. His father came from the Urhobo stock. His mother came from Umukwata in Delta North while his wife of over four decades is from Ijaw in Delta South . No other governorship candidate has that type of “rainbow coalition ”

As Deltans evaluate those seeking the state’s highest office, many will consider not only campaign promises but also the personal qualities of the candidates. For supporters of Chief Great Ogboru, the combination of competence, character, courage and charisma makes a compelling case that he possesses the attributes needed to provide purposeful and inclusive leadership for Delta State.
