Delta PDP Crisis: David Edevbie Didn’t Endorse Oborevwori For Governor – Delta Unity Group


As Delta Unity Group Begins Grassroots Mobilisation Ahead 2023

By Onome Oghenetega

Delta Unity Group (DUG) on Monday debunked alleged endorsement of the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, by Olorogun David Edevbie.

DUG, a pressure group within the PDP with an agenda to mordenise Delta State, said the alleged endorsed at Edevbie country-home of Afiesere, Ughelli, as mere “hoax” fabricated by purveyor of fake news.

This is even as the group has flagged off sensitisation and mobilisation of the grassroots across the State, ahead of the 2023 elections.

DUG’s National Chairman, Rt. Honourable Peter Onwusanya, who stated this on Monday, debunked the alleged endorsement and urged members of the public particularly Edevbie’s supporters to consider the report as fake.

Onwusanya said the report was a calculated lie tailored to deceive the discerning public , adding that nothing of that nature took place and that Edevbie did not give anybody his mandate to “wedge kola” at the alleged ceremony.

Warning against evil propaganda that could cause internal crisis within the party, Onwusanya urged all DUG members and the public to discountenance the spurious agenda setting propaganda of people with unclear intentions.

He said “Olorogun David Edevbie is a respected member of the PDP and has no personal issues with Sheriff and our Vice Presidential Candidate, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa. At the right time, Olorogun David Edevbie will personally make a statement moving forward.”

Flagging off the sensitisation at a gathering of all the Wards in Ethiope West Local Government at Oghara, Monday, the National Chairman of DUG, Rt. Hon. Peter Onwusanya, said “the PDP constitution encourages us to carry out these duties, which enhance internal democracy and sustain our vice grip of governance in the State.”

Speaking further, he said: “Our presence here today is to interact with and encourage our members to enlighten the people at the grassroots to collect their PVCs and vote for our candidates at all the elections that will take place in 2023.”

In Sapele, Sapele Local Government, Right Honourable Onwusanya enjoined the local government and ward executives and members of DUG to remain active in the mobilisation of the electorate for the tasks ahead.


He said: “We have a leader who formed the PDP in 1998 in Delta State. DUG is working and cannot be excluded in the affairs of the party,” adding that DUG is fortified to deliver during the forthcoming elections.
