Afuye, describing his death as a huge loss not only to his family, wife and children but also to the Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures of Nigeria, where he was an active and committed member.

“The court held that the fact that Tebite did not participate in the rerun and therefore does not have the power to question the rerun, and that the argument by Ahwinahwi does not hold water because the cases cited by Ahwinahwi; it was only one election that was conducted, but in this case, PDP conducted two separate elections, one was conducted on May 22 and the other on May 30, 2022. So the cited cases does not apply to this case.

Chief Hon. Tebite, is regarded as a pragmatic, dynamic and accessible leader who believes in grassroot politics. Twice he was a member representing his Constituency at the State level and he was considered as one of the best hands after the late Senator Pius Akpo Ewherido. No doubt, his regime brought a lot of changes, empowerments to hundreds of youths from the three axis of Ughievwen, Olomu and Ewu in the local government area as his developmental initiatives spread across board.

Hon. Sheriff F.O. Oborevwori, the governorship candidate of the party in Delta State and directed our teeming members to spare no efforts to ensure he wins his elections.”
