Vice President Kashim Shettima is billed to storm Asaba, Delta State Capital to formally welcome Governor Sheriff Oborevwori from Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress in the coming days.

Oborevwori announced his defection after a high-level, closed-door meeting held at the Government House in Asaba, the State Capital, on Wednesday evening.

The State’s Commissioner for information, Charles Aniagwu confirmed the announcement on Wednesday.

In a viral footage at the meeting, the Governor and attendees unanimously sang on President Bola Tinubu’s mandate ‘we stand’, advancing the stake of the All Progressives Congress in Delta State.
