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.

While saying that Delta State is one, Oborevwori who is the man of the moment, said “by the grace of God, in 2023, we shall come here again (Government House Chapel) to give thanks to God.

“We have come here to give thanks to God for giving us victory. The victory is for everybody; it is God that gives power and nobody can upturn what God had ordained.

“When we came to the chapel to celebrate the 31st anniversary of the creation of Delta State last Saturday, I promised God that if He gives me victory at the Appeal Court, l shall come to the chapel to give thanks to Him,” he added.

The highlight of the ceremony was thanksgiving to God by Sheriff Oborevwori who was accompanied by the governor’s wife, Dame Edith Okowa as well as other dignitaries as they all danced gloriously to the altar of God for the thanksgiving.
