Former Nigerian Senator Dino Melaye praised Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s governance of Delta State, calling him a “working governor.” In a post on the social media platform X, Melaye noted that the entire state now resembles a construction site, with numerous people‑oriented projects underway. He highlighted the widespread development initiatives, emphasizing that Delta is experiencing significant growth and improvement.
This commendation follows a major political shift in early 2025, when Governor Oborevwori and members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the National Assembly defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC). The wave of defections also included Oborevwori’s predecessor, former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, who had been the PDP’s presidential running mate. These moves have reshaped the state’s political landscape.
Despite the political turbulence, Melaye’s remarks suggest that Governor Oborevwori’s focus on development and infrastructure is having a positive impact. The ongoing construction projects and people‑oriented initiatives are expected to boost Delta State’s economy and improve residents’ quality of life. As the state continues to develop, monitoring progress and assessing the effectiveness of the governor’s strategies will be essential. With the current pace of development, Delta State is poised for continued growth, moving toward its economic and social goals. Tracking the outcomes of these policies will be crucial to understanding their long‑term impact on the region.
