The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) in Delta State, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege is in a comfortable lead as results collation continues for the Saturday, March 18 polls.

Results so far made available indicate that the APC has trounced the PDP in two senatorial districts of Delta South and Delta Central and is neck to neck with the PDP in Delta North senatorial district.

Emerging indication hinted that the lead for APC in Delta cuts across the Guber and State House of Assembly elections.

Following the lead, Ima Niboro,
Director, Communications and Media Strategy, Delta APC Campaign Council has advised party members, faithful and supporters “to disregard the plethora of discouraging information flowing in the Social Media to the contrary, and encourage you to keep hope alive as the leadership of the party are doing all possible to checkmate the massive rigging the PDP is onto.

“Deltans have massively votes for the APC and their votes must surely count.

“Be assured that the APC will ultimately emerge as the well deserved winner of the election in spite of all the desperate moves of the PDP to thwart the will of the people.”
