He noted that the current situation may seem tough for citizens of the country but it takes tougher but responsible and honest leadership to fix the situation.

He said the group was committed to ensure the mobilisation of ten thousand votes for President Tinubu and Oborevwori to return them to continue to deepen their reformatory policies and programmes in 2027.
“We are gathered here today to highlight the achievements of His Excellencies, President Bola Tinubu, and Gov. Sheriff Oborevwori, and to formally unveil the Delta State Chapter of the Amalgamated APC Support Groups(AASG).
“We endorse Mr President and Gov. Oborevwori for second term in office and all APC candidates both State and National in the 2027 General elections.
“Let me begin by acknowledging a simple truth: many Nigerians are experiencing economic pressure.
“These concerns are real, and they must not be dismissed. But at the same time, it is important to understand why difficult decisions are being made.
“The reforms introduced by President Bola Tinubu are not acts of convenience, they are acts of necessity,” he said.
Ogagha noted that for decades, Nigeria operated systems that were unsustainable, adding that the current administration has taken decisive steps to correct them.
He cited some of the Tinubu’s reforms to include; the removal of fuel subsidy, which had become a major financial burden on the nation. The unification of the foreign exchange system to promote transparency and stability.
“Also, the introduction of student loan initiatives to expand access to higher education. Increased investments in infrastructure and energy and the strengthening of social support frameworks for vulnerable citizens,” he said.
According to Ogagha, the reforms are not without challenges but they are designed to secure a more stable and prosperous future.
“The reality is simple; you cannot rebuild a system without first correcting its foundations”.
He said President Tinubu was determined and committed to rebuilding decades of defective foundation which would sure come with its pains and gains after a period of time.
Ogagha said that at the state level that Gov. Oborevwori has continued to demonstrate focused and practical leadership through his M.O.R.E Agenda.
He said: “Across Delta state, we are seeing completed and ongoing road infrastructure including construction of flyover bridges, rehabilitation and improved road connectivity.
“These strategic infrastructure projects are supporting economic activities. Youth empowerment and skills development initiatives and community focused development efforts are reaching the grassroots.
“Most recent is the State Economic and Investment summit that has attracted both local and foreign investors and the unveiling of the 100 million dollars viability gap funds for investors”.
The AASG state coordinator, said all these projects and programmes of the Oborevwori led-government should be sustained to fruition when the governor return to complete his second term in office.
He urged all to mobilise votes for Mr President and Gov. Oborevwori in the general elections to ensure the sustainability of their transformational policies and projects.
