Governor of Delta State, Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has called on Nigerians to rally behind President Bola Tinubu, emphasizing that the president’s success is directly tied to his own success as a governor.
The governor’s Chief Press Secretary (CPS), Sir Festus Ahon, made this statement in Asaba while responding to a report from Mr. Felix Ofou, the Executive Assistant on New Media to the governor.
The CPS expressed disappointment that Ofou’s article had been wrongly interpreted by certain sections of the media. He clarified that, contrary to these misperceptions, the governor maintains a strong and collaborative relationship with President Tinubu.

Ahon said, “the Governor has constantly urged Deltans and other Nigerians to continue to give support to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu”, stressing that “if the President fails”, he, as a governor, would have failed, too.”
He continued, “But I will tell you today whether you like it or not, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is supporting this administration. God has made him the President as God has made me the Governor of Delta State.
“So, as you are supporting me, support him because if he fails, I will fail, but by the grace of God, he will not fail and I will not fail, too.
“Mr President has appointed our sons and daughters into various positions. He did not appoint people from outside the state. God has given him victory and God has given me victory; you people should support us to succeed”.

Ahon added, “it is, therefore, imperative to state categorically that, as Chief Press Secretary and official spokesman of the Governor of Delta State, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori did not, and has never, expressed such views on Mr President’s economic policies.
“The general public is, therefore, advised to jettison such misleading reports as they do not reflect the views of the Governor who is working very hard to provide good governance for Deltans and other residents of the state, despite the present economic challenges faced by the citizens” Ahon stated.
Ahon made this statement in response to the recent tirade by former Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, against Governor Oborevwori during an APC event in Oghara, Ethiope West local government area of the state.
