Ahead of the 2027 general elections, Delta State Governor Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori has charged political leaders, aides, and supporters to aggressively market the achievements of his administration’s M.O.R.E Agenda to citizens at the grassroots level.

Speaking at a strategic one-day seminar for Special Assistants, Senior Special Assistants, and Executive Assistants in Asaba, Oborevwori urged political appointees to communicate government milestones using verifiable facts, figures, and tangible project results.

Represented by the Chief of Staff, Government House, Sir Johnson Erijo, the governor stressed that the 2027 elections should be viewed as an opportunity to consolidate progress, sustain political stability, and protect ongoing developmental initiatives.
