Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, the incumbent Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly heaved a big sigh of relief on Monday afternoon after the Appeal Court sitting in Abuja restored his mandate as the lawful and authentic governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state for the 2023 general elections.

Moments after the Appellate Court nullified the judgement of the Federal High Court, Abuja, which had declared Olorogun David Edevbie as the lawful and authentic governorship candidate of the party, Oborevwori flanked by his wife hurried to the Government House Chapel, Asaba, to celebrate the court victory.

The thanksgiving service was attended by the wife of the state Governor, Dame Edith Okowa, members of the state executive council, chieftains of the PDP in the state, members of the State House of Assembly and supporters of the party (PDP) among others.

He said that it was the Almighty God that gave him the victory at the Court, pointing out that the victory was for everybody in the state.

According to him, it is God that gives power, stressing that nobody can upturn what God had ordained.
