Bode George to Oborevwori: Now that you have defected to APC, resign as Delta Governor

*’Attempts to turn Nigeria to a one-party state will fail’

Former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Bode George, has told Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta State to resign from office.
He said since he (Oborevwori) defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Wednesday, then he should resign because PDP gave him the platform when he contested, won and was sworn-in on May 29, 2023.
George said: “I am shell-shocked. How can our governors from an organised party defect to an unorganised party like APC with only two people – Tinubu and Ganduje – dictatorially controlling the party?
“APC is a party of strange bed-fellows and I urge Deltans not to follow Oborevwori to APC because Delta is a PDP state from 1999 and it shall remain so. Presidency and APC are using instruments of state to coerce PDP governors to defect to APC.
“PDP governors are being threatened. PDP sponsored Oborevwori as governorship candidate. So, he has to leave office. He should resign.
“Attempts to turn Nigeria to a one-party state will fail. What has APC done since 2015 that will warrant any PDP governor to defect to the party?”
