2027: Oscar Ibru Mobilizes APC in Ughelli North to Support Tinubu, Oborevwori at Unity Meeting

Prominent businessman and political leader, Olorogun Oscar Ibru, hosted a significant unity meeting for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ughelli North Local Government Area on Friday, with the goal of fortifying the party in anticipation of the 2027 general elections.

The gathering, held at Oharisi Model Primary School in Ughelli, drew together APC stakeholders, grassroots activists, youth leaders, and committed party members, all demonstrating their dedication to party solidarity and electoral success.

In his address, Olorogun Ibru underscored the importance of unity and strategic mobilization to ensure the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori.

He referred to both leaders as “reform-driven patriots,” highlighting their efforts in fostering sustainable development in Nigeria and Delta State.

“This is not a time for division,” Ibru stated. “We need to unite, put aside our differences, and rally behind those genuinely committed to progress. President Tinubu has made difficult yet essential choices to reshape the economy, and Governor Oborevwori has excelled in infrastructure development and youth empowerment.”

Ibru continued, “We gather today to honor a leader who embodies the vision I had 18 years ago when I aspired to be governor of the state. The Governor has performed admirably. I proudly call him Sheriff; he embodies peace and positive action.”

He praised the Governor’s extensive political experience and his honorable character, noting, “He is approachable and attentive. When people claim the Governor has defected, they fail to see that he is acting in the best interests of the people of Delta State.”

“I urge everyone to support his re-election and that of the President in 2027. Actions speak louder than words, and it is evident that the Governor is well-prepared for governance,” Ibru emphasized.

He encouraged APC members in Ughelli North to enhance grassroots outreach, support government initiatives, and maintain discipline within the party to secure significant victories in 2027.

During his welcoming speech, Olorogun Jaro Egbo, Chairman of the Ughelli North Local Government Council, affirmed the party’s unity in the region.

“We are committed to strengthening our party’s unity and aim to deliver 85 percent of Ughelli North votes for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and our esteemed Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori,” he declared.

Several party leaders, including Olorogun Morrison Olori, Olorogun Terry Noah, Prof. Sam Iboje, Vera Ugbobor, Felix Olokpa, and Olorogun Samuel Akpimegi, the President-General of the Ughelli Descendants Union, praised Ibru for his efforts in bridging divides, which they believe will reinvigorate the APC’s local structure.

They expressed gratitude for the support received from the community, emphasizing that their unity is focused on achieving the desired outcomes for the President, Governor Oborevwori, and all APC candidates in the 2027 elections.

The event marked an important milestone in building party cohesion and enhancing campaign readiness as political activities gain traction leading up to 2027.
