The Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, was absent when the Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF) met in Abuja on Saturday.
The meeting was to welcome new entrants into the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), but Oborevwori, who recently defected to the party, did not attend.
Oborevwori, who cruised to victory in 2023 under the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), however, dumped the party earlier in the week, citing several factors.
The governor, his predecessor, Ifeanyi Okowa, and the entire PDP in the state said they are collapsing their structure into the leading APC, noting that it serves as a better platform for the oil-rich state.
