The former President General of Okpe Union worldwide and Okpe PDP chieftain, Chief Dick Gberevbie JP, the Akpijorovi of Okpe Kingdom, has described Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori as a destiny child right from the youth, noting that he corrected many things, such as oppressors and anomalies that happened in many places.
Speaking with journalists recently at Osubi in Okpe LGA, Delta State, Chief Gberevbie advised those engaged in various campaigns of calumny against the PDP 2023 flagbearer and Speaker DTHA to in the interest of the State and party desist from such act as growth and development cannot occur in an atmosphere of sentiment rancour and acrimony.
“He said for you to believe he is a destiny child, somebody who is a first timer in the House of Assembly emerged as Speaker over 6 years uninterrupted and now became Vice Chairman of Conference of Speakers of States Legislatures in Nigeria”.
“Since he emerged, under his leadership as Speaker of the Delta House of Assembly, there are so many changes. Before the whole members of the house of Assembly supported him they believe in his capacity and integrity of delivering good governance. He is not the first person to be there, because they believe his leadership capacity”.
“The victory of Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori at the PDP primary is one of its kind to Okpe People since inception of democracy in Delta State. Everyone is overwhelmed over the conduct of the PDP primary in the State”.
The people of Okpe having crying over the years for lack of development and growth has finally been answered by God”.
The former Okpe Union PG appealed to all stakeholders to close ranks and work in synergy to deliver Chief Oborevwori whom he said has built a solid and robust political background across board.
He said; Victory for Oborevwori is a victory for all Deltans.
The Okpe high Chief used the medium to commend Governor Ifeanyi Okowa for his steadfastness and support.
He once again Congratulated Oborevwori on his victory at the just concluded PDP Delta State governorship primary in Asaba.
He wished him God’s direction and wisdom to pilot the State affairs effectively.
