Dr Otuaro highlighted the role of Governors Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta), Douye Diri (Bayelsa), Siminalayi Fubara (Rivers), Umo Eno (Akwa Ibom), Bassey Otu (Cross River), and Monday Okpebholo (Edo) in facilitating the successful election of new ward executives and State Working Committees (SWCs) across the zone.
He also congratulated Solomon Arenyeka, Warman Ogoriba, Tony Okocha, Stephen Ntukekpo, Chris Etta, and Jarret Tenebe on their emergence as APC state chairmen in Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Edo, respectively, alongside other members of the newly constituted SWCs.
“The governors demonstrated astute leadership, while delegates showed discipline and resilience in ensuring a transparent transition process that delivered acceptable outcomes for all APC stakeholders,” Dr Otuaro said.
He noted that the affirmation exercise was consensus-driven, fully adhering to the party’s constitution and internal guidelines.
The Administrator attributed the smooth process to the democratic leadership and vision of President Bola Tinubu, as well as the dedication of the APC national secretariat to internal party democracy, inclusion, and unity of purpose.
Dr Otuaro expressed confidence that the newly inaugurated ward and state working committees would provide a solid foundation for securing total victory for President Tinubu and the APC in the 2027 general elections.
