… Party leads in nine councils
 
From Paul Osuyi, Asaba 
 
As results of Delta State Governorship continue to trickle in from local councils, the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Sheriff Oborevwori, has maintained a lead in 12 out of the 14 councils so far collated.
In the results, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa delivered his Ika North-East LGA to the PDP, even as Oborevwori also delivered his Okpe locality.
Besides, APC deputy governorship candidate, Friday Osanebi, lost his Ndokwa East council to the PDP.
Moreover, the PDP also trounced the candidate of All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA), Great Ogboru, in his Ethiope East locality.
Other councils won by the ruling in the state are Aniocha North, Aniocha South, Ika South, Patani, Bomadi, Sapele, Warri South and Oshimili North.
