AN all-female Political Pressure Group known as ‘Unique Ladies for Sheriff’ has emerged, pledging total support for the incumbent Governor, Rt. Hon Sheriff Oborevwori as well as the realisation of his second term bid.
A prominent political figure in Delta State, Dame Nkem Okwuofu, popularly called ‘Mother Government’ who is the National President led the group to the official residence of the Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Rt Hon Emomotimi Dennis Guwor in Asaba, few days ago.
Addressing the group, Speaker Guwor said, “there will be only one governorship candidate in Delta State in the 2027. Our governor, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori is not chor, chor Governor but an Administrator who allows his works speak for him. He has done very well and Deltans are proud of him.
“In 2023, the victory for our party was 21 to 4 local government areas. In 2027 it will be 25 over 25 local government areas. Not again will any local government be won by opposition party. Members of the Delta State Assembly will strongly stand behind the Governor as he is determined to further promote accelerated development in the State”.
Guwor explained that the unity of purpose by members of the group, has complimented the efforts of the leadership of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP in the State, which has always championed oneness amongst Party faithful in Delta state.
“The slogan of the group”, he went on, “clearly sent the message across. There is no vacancy in government house in 2027. I commend the effort which is complimenting and strengthening what the party is doing to ensure that the state remains in the part of progress.
“Deltans are united for the second term of our Governor because he has done well and has shown commitment to deliver more dividends of democracy in the State.
“I enjoy you to keep up the great work of mobilizing the people for our party and I thank you so very much for the birthday wishes and gift”, Guwor added.
