Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has disqualified Sheriff Oborevwori, the 2023 Governorship candidate of the Delta State Peoples Democracy Party (PDP).
Justice Taiwo Taiwo disqualified Oborevwori over discrepancies in his certificates.
In his ruling, Justice Taiwo also restrained Oborevwori who is the speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly from parading himself as the candidate of the PDP for the Delta 2023 governorship election.
The court order followed a suit instituted by David Edevbie, a former commissioner for finance, who is the anointed candidate of former governor James Ibori against Oborevwori’s candidacy.
The State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa had earlier announced Oborevwori as his anointed candidate.
