Women leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta South Senatorial District have thrown their weight behind President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, declaring full support for their second-term bids in the 2027 general elections.
The endorsement was made during an enlarged “Unity Meeting” held at the Isoko South Local Government Council Secretariat in Oleh, where women from across the district gathered in solidarity. The event was marked by praises for the developmental achievements recorded under Tinubu’s leadership at the national level and Oborevwori’s strides in Delta State.
The motion for their endorsement was moved by Rt. Hon. Joy Ejumudo, a serving Councillor and Leader of the House in Warri South Local Government Area, who highlighted key developmental milestones and urged the women to back both leaders as sole candidates for the APC in 2027. Her motion was immediately seconded by Hon. Eloho Eza, Majority Leader of the House in Isoko South LGA, and put to a vote by the Commissioner for Humanitarian Services, Orode Meyiwa Uduaghan. The resounding “yes” that followed sealed the women’s collective decision.

Speaking at the meeting, Delta APC Women Leader Mrs. Tina Okwudi, Senatorial Woman Leader Chief Onome Ogagarojor, and HRH Queen Betty Efekodha commended the spirit of unity among the women. They charged members to return to their units and wards to work tirelessly for the success of the party in the 2027 elections.
The women’s endorsement is seen as a major boost for the APC ahead of the polls, as grassroots mobilization has always played a decisive role in shaping outcomes in Delta politics. With over 900 women in attendance, the show of solidarity underscored the growing influence of female political participation in the state.
