Oborevwori Says APC Has No Need to Buy Votes to Secure Victory

Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, has declared that the All Progressives Congress (APC) does not need to engage in vote-buying to secure victory in the 2027 general elections, insisting that the party enjoys sufficient grassroots support.

Oborevwori made the statement on Wednesday during the APC’s local government-by-local government campaign rally held in Akwukwu-Igbo, headquarters of Oshimili North Local Government Area of Delta State.

The governor maintained that the party had the backing of residents and would rely on their support at the polls rather than financial inducements.

“The APC has no reason to buy votes because the people are already with us. Vote-buying is only necessary for those who lack grassroots support,” he said.

Oborevwori recalled that Oshimili North recorded the highest number of votes in Delta State during the last election.

He expressed confidence that the party would maintain or surpass the record in the 2027 general elections, urging APC supporters to turn out in large numbers to vote for its candidates.

The governor also pledged that his administration would continue to deliver development projects across the state, saying the party would use its performance and grassroots engagement to mobilise support.

He urged party members to remain committed to the campaign and work towards securing votes for the APC in the forthcoming elections.
