Senator Ned Nwoko, representing Delta North in the National Assembly, will continue to remain a major stakeholder in advancing the Delta State Government’s M.O.R.E. Agenda, Delta North APC Chieftain, Chief Emmanuel Eboh, has said.
He also said while working to advance the MORE Agenda in Delta, the Senator is also working for the success of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope vision.
Speaking at a media briefing in Abuja, Eboh stressed that Nwoko’s contributions go beyond legislative duties in Delta North, noting that he has mobilised and will continue to mobilise significant personal resources and public goodwill to support Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s administration.
He said this dual commitment to the progress of the state and the nation underscores the senator’s political significance.
Eboh dismissed speculation of a rift between the governor and the senator, describing their relationship as “long-standing, cordial, and mutually respectful”
He traced their relationship back to the 1990s when Nwoko was practising law in London, saying “Both personalities are working together,” for the good of the state.
He added that any counsel Nwoko has given to the state government has been in good faith, aimed at improving governance.
He warned against what he called the “mischief and sycophancy” of individuals seeking political favour by misrepresenting the senator’s advocacy.
Citing the senator’s strong alignment with public opinion and referencing recent commentary by Channels TV’s Seun Okinbaloye on Delta politics, Eboh reiterated that Nwoko’s voice carries weight among opinion leaders.
Eboh also recalled that on June 14, 2025, at Nwoko’s Idumuje Ugboko residence, the first and most notable APC endorsement of both President Tinubu and Governor Oborevwori ahead of 2027 took place, a gesture he described as “a bold testament of Nwoko’s good intentions.”
“His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori and distinguished Senator Ned Nwoko are good friends. In the whole of Delta state, the first and the most outstanding APC endorsement of President Bola Tinubu, Oborevwori, as well as Nwoko, so far, ahead of 2027, happened at the senator’s residence at Idumuje Ugboko on the 14th of June 2025. That stands as a bold testament of Nwoko’s good intentions,” Eboh noted.
