At exactly 10:54 AM Saturday morning 13th July 2024, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori voted at his polling unit at DSIEC-conducted Local Government elections.
The process was peaceful and hitch-free.
Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori has vowed to advocate for free, fair, and credible elections.
''Overall, this Local Government election is a litmus test and its outcome will be a determinant of whether we are doing well with our MORE Agenda policy thrust or not.''
While speaking to the media after voting, he used the opportunity to share his perspectives on the recent Supreme Court ruling on Local Government financial autonomy.
As a former speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, he championed the argument for financial autonomy for the Judiciary and the Legislature.
In Delta, as a matter of principle, we do not tamper with LGA funds; instead, we have most times augmented their expenditure with funds meant for the State.
Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori
