2027: Tinubu’s Niger Delta Adviser, Otuaro, Hails Warri South-West Residents for Massive Show of Support for Continuity
The Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), Dr Dennis Brutu Otuaro, has applauded the people of Warri South-West Local Government Area of Delta State for their impressive turnout and show of political solidarity during the campaign tour of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori to the area, describing the development as a strong demonstration of grassroots support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The campaign rally, held on Tuesday at the Ogbe-Ijoh Grammar School compound, Ogbe-Ijoh, witnessed a large gathering of APC members, supporters, community leaders, women, youths and other political stakeholders who came out to receive the governor and demonstrate their support for the party’s candidates.
For the people of Warri South-West, the rally provided an opportunity to demonstrate their political commitment and express their expectations for continued development in their communities, particularly in the areas of infrastructure, education, healthcare, employment, agriculture, social welfare, peace and security.
Dr Otuaro, who hails from Warri South-West, described the massive attendance as a clear indication that the people were favourably disposed to supporting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Oborevwori for another term in office.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, by his Special Assistant on Media, Mr Igoniko Oduma, the PAP Administrator said the enthusiasm displayed by residents reflected their appreciation of the development efforts of the Tinubu and Oborevwori administrations.
He noted that the people of Warri South-West had recognised the importance of continuity in governance, particularly in sustaining ongoing development programmes and attracting more federal and state government interventions to the riverine communities.
According to the statement, Dr Otuaro maintained that the combined impact of President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda and Governor Oborevwori’s MORE Agenda had provided a development framework capable of advancing the fortunes of Delta State and its communities.
He identified infrastructure development, education, healthcare delivery, agriculture, employment opportunities, workers’ welfare, grassroots development, social protection, peace and security as some of the areas in which the people had continued to look towards government for improved service delivery.
The PAP Administrator also expressed appreciation to the leadership of the Warri South-West APC Campaign Council, political stakeholders, traditional and community leaders, women and youth groups for their mobilisation efforts and contributions towards the success of the rally.
He expressed confidence that the political support demonstrated at the rally would be sustained through the electoral process, adding that the people were optimistic about the prospects of further development if both administrations secured another mandate.
Meanwhile, Governor Oborevwori, while addressing the gathering, expressed confidence in the APC’s grassroots strength and political structures, saying the party’s unity and growing support across communities would contribute to its electoral success in 2027.
The governor reassured residents of his administration’s commitment to delivering more development across Delta State and urged party leaders, women, youths and other stakeholders to remain united and intensify grassroots mobilisation.
Also speaking, the Director-General of the Delta APC Campaign Council, Senator James Manager, called on the people of Warri South-West to take the lead in mobilising support for President Tinubu, Governor Oborevwori and other APC candidates across the state.
Manager maintained that both leaders deserved another term to consolidate their respective achievements and sustain the development efforts already underway.
In their separate remarks, the Delta South and Central APC Chairmen, Emmanuel Amgbaduba and Paulinus Akpeki, expressed optimism about the party’s chances in the forthcoming elections and called on residents to support its candidates.
The state APC Chairman, Solomon Arenyeka, subsequently presented party flags to the party’s candidates, including Thomas Ereyitomi for the House of Representatives, Guwor Emomotimi for Warri South-West Constituency I, and Andrew Igban for Warri South-West Constituency II.
The presentation of the party flags formed part of the political activities at the rally, signalling the party’s readiness to strengthen its campaign structures and mobilise support across the various constituencies.
With the 2027 general elections approaching, the rally in Ogbe-Ijoh underscores the growing importance of grassroots engagement, community participation and political mobilisation in the contest for electoral support across Delta State.
For the riverine communities of Warri South-West, the expectations surrounding the next political dispensation remain closely tied to improved infrastructure, expanded opportunities for young people, quality education, accessible healthcare and sustainable development that reaches communities at the grassroots.
