What happened
Rt Hon Sheriff Francis Orohwedor Oborevwori has served as the 5th elected Governor of Delta State since 29 May 2023 (PDP), sworn in after a contested 2022 PDP gubernatorial primary and certificate-of-return litigation that culminated in a May 2023 Supreme Court ruling affirming his nomination. Previously Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly (2017–2023). As a sitting governor he benefits from s.308 immunity until at least May 2027 (or May 2031 if re-elected). **Corpus gap:** the `index.md` is a TBD stub and there is no `corruption_cases.json` — re-import strongly recommended. From outside the corpus, no criminal corruption proceeding has been filed against him to date. Recommend `contextual` for the Delta archive until the corpus is enriched and any post-tenure proceedings (if any) emerge.
