Delta: Oborevwori’s aide hails governor over double award

Hon. Benjamin Sharta, popularly known as DJ Ben and Executive Assistant to the Governor on Community Development, has publicly commended Governor Sheriff Oborevwori following his recognition as Governor of the Year 2025 in a prestigious double award.

In a widely shared message on social media, Sharta described the honour as a fitting tribute to leadership that delivers visible results rather than mere promises.

“History honours leaders whose impact speaks louder than titles and today, that honour belongs to His Excellency, Rt. Hon. (Elder) Sheriff F.O. Oborevwori, on his well-deserved recognition as Governor of the Year 2025,” Sharta wrote.

He praised the governor’s administration for turning the MORE Agenda—Meaningful Development, Opportunities for all, Realistic Reforms, and Economic Advancement—into tangible progress across infrastructure, community empowerment, education, healthcare, and youth development.

“This double award is a powerful affirmation of visionary leadership and purposeful governance,” Sharta added. “Delta State is proud. Nigeria celebrates you. ”

The aide highlighted key achievements under Oborevwori’s leadership, including urban renewal projects, improved rural connectivity, enhanced security measures, and inclusive growth initiatives that have earned widespread acclaim.

Sharta’s endorsement reflects growing confidence among Delta indigenes in the governor’s hands-on style, regular town-hall meetings, and direct engagement with community needs.

Political analysts view the double recognition as both validation of the administration’s performance and renewed motivation to sustain momentum toward even greater development.

As Delta continues its steady transformation under Oborevwori, the Governor of the Year 2025 title stands as a significant milestone in the state’s journey of progress and good governance.
