Charles Aniagwu, the Delta State Commissioner for Works, Rural Roads, and Public Information, said on Friday that Governor Sheriff Oborevwori has no intention of defecting to the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Aniagwu stated that Oborevwori is a “poster governor” of the PDP, and any speculation about him joining the APC is merely wishful thinking by detractors.
Speaking on Arise TV’s Morning Show, the Commissioner emphasised that the governor has no plans to oppose President Bola Tinubu.
According to Aniagwu: “When you go to the hospital as a patient, doctors bring out equipment to test you and diagnose any issues. I wish we could set up a political lab to test the political temperature of those of us in Delta. You would see that the PDP runs profoundly and heavily in our bloodstream.
“That explains why those spreading rumours about Oborevwori wanting to move to the APC are simply hoping he would join their ranks.
“Oborevwori is not only a proud member of the PDP and a leader of the party both in Delta and Nigeria, but he is also a performing governor who can rightly be regarded as a ‘poster governor’ for the PDP.
“To those wishing he is jumping ship, we want to make it clear that Oborevwori is not in the business of defection.
“He is demonstrating that the PDP has the capacity to deliver while continuing to cooperate with the President of Nigeria, because at this moment, President Tinubu has no opponent in office.
“When he declared his support for the President, it was a patriotic move aimed at fostering good governance, not an attempt to look for another political platform.
“He remains firmly in the PDP and has no intention of leaving. For us in the PDP, he is a symbol of what the party stands for.
“Politics is often like a concentric circle of conspiracy, with various actors collaborating for power. It’s true that we have some internal disagreements, but that’s to be expected in a party that performed well during its 16 years in power.
“For those predicting the extinction of the PDP, I believe that’s the height of a malaria-induced dream.”
