“The man is an in-law here. So, it will be evil to vote against your in-law. It’s a family affair,” he stated.
The governor also referenced the reported ancestral ties of the First Lady to the Itsekiri ethnic nationality, expressing confidence that members of the ethnic group and other residents of the state would rally behind the President when the time comes.
According to him, Delta voters are becoming more politically aware and are less likely to be influenced by narratives that overlook the President’s connection to the state.
The remarks come as political activities and alignments ahead of the 2027 general election continue to gather momentum across the country. While major political parties are yet to formally unveil their presidential candidates, discussions surrounding potential contenders and regional support bases have already begun to shape the political landscape.
Oborevwori’s comments are likely to generate debate among political observers and opposition figures, particularly as issues of performance, governance and regional interests are expected to dominate campaigns ahead of the next presidential election.
