Oborevwori Appoints Brother, Onoriode As Delta Sports Commission's Chair by Celestialsword: 3:41am On Nov 29
Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has appointed his brother, Onoriode Joshua Oborevwori, as the Chairman of the Delta State Sports Commission.

The announcement was made recently in Asaba, with the governor expressing confidence in his brother’s ability to drive sports development in the state.

This development comes after almost a year since Chief Tonobok Okowa’s eight-year tenure as Chairman of the Sports Commission ended.

“This appointment reflects my administration’s commitment to fostering sports excellence and ensuring our youth thrive in diverse athletic endeavors,” Oborevwori said.

The board also includes notable members such as former international footballer Sam Sodje, Oghale Ofremu, and Herrita Ehiabor.

Onoriode Joshua Oborewovori is a grassroots footballer and strong supporter of female football. He was the sole sponsor of Delta Babes Football Club and an Allstars player.


Sam Okemuete Sodje is a retired professional footballer who played for several clubs in Nigeria and England. He represented the Nigeria Super Eagles from 2005 to 2009 and is a member of the Delta State Football Association.

Henrietta Ehiabor is the former Chairperson of Delta Queens FC, who led the team to emerge as champions of the Nigerian Female Professional League.

Oghale Ofremu is the Chairman of a nationwide league one side, NLO1, and a club owner by a former sports commission member, Solomon Ogba.

He is following the trend.
James Ibori appointed his first cousin Emmanuel Uduaghan as Commissioner and SSG. Emmanuel Uduaghan later became his sussesor as Governor of Delta state.

Emmanuel Uduaghan appointed his Brother Amaju Pinnick as the Delta state sports Commissioner.

Okowa came onboard and also appointed his direct sibling of same parents Tony Okowa A.K.A TONOBOK as Sports Commissioner.

This is some of the genuine reasons why Delta state is one of the worst underdeveloped state's in the Niger Delta.
Okowa built one fly over in 8 year's.
Wike built 11 fly over in same 8 year's.

Okowa built the Film village as his only industry for 8 year's.

Emmanuel Udom built and commission 11 functioning state industry's including the Ibom Air for the same 8 year's.

They run Delta state like a family supermarket.

Only in Africa Government is being run as family business.

Take for instance, Tinubu son is warming up seriously, to take over as Lagos state governor. CBN, INEC and others are being run by family members or associates. Even our Judiciary the same. Not that they are the most qualify, but because they they are related to som1.

Chai! I cry for 9ja my country.

So sad with Delta. And you see idiots and nincompoops abusing Tinubu on Lagos. Tinubu never bring his brother or cousin to be Kagis governor nah.

However, this guy appointed in Edo looks very qualified for the position nah if you check his profile according to the report
