Delta Apc Leadership: How Tinubu Stopped Oborevwori/omo-agege Fight

For the old All Progressives Congress APC members in Delta State, led by the former Deputy Senate President DSP, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, their biggest surprise in the last nine calendar days is how the state governor, Elder Sheriff Oborevwori, managed to take over the partys leadership in the state.

Omo-Agege and his followers were still pondering the real reasons Governor Oborevwori and his predecessor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, both new APC members, collapsed the structure of the once-dominant Peoples Democratic Party PDP in Delta State, penultimate Wednesday, when the blunt reality dawned on them on Monday, April 28.

He did not wish, and never wanted, the sitting governor to sign up with the APC. As is already known, he did everything to block his entry. However, the Monday defection in Asaba, the state capital, which President Tinubu described as a political tsunami of unimaginable proportion, turned out to be the coronation of Oborevwori as the new leader of the APC.
