Francis Waive, whose victory was also upheld today by the Court of Appeal sitting in Lagos.

In a press statement released today, Olorogun Okumagba felicitated with the trio national lawmakers over the Court of Appeal decisions today which affirmed their victories at the February 25, 2023, general election.

Congratulating Senator Joel-Onowakpo Thomas, Olorogun Okumagba said the Appeal Court’s pronouncement was “a vindication of what the constituents of our Senatorial District have known and convinced that Senator Joel-Onowakpo Thomas won the popular votes and has the support of the people.”

Olorogun Okumagba added that the victory at the Court of Appeal which is the final arbiter for legislative positions should bring everyone together to work for the interest and wellbeing of the people of the Delta South Senatorial district.

He urged the Senator to stay true to his campaign promises, which gave him victory at the poll, noting that “I am gratified as a proud indigene of Delta South Senatorial district that Senator Joel- Onowakpo Thomas has not disappointed so far. His brilliance and advocacy displayed so far at the Senate is proof enough that the people of Delta South Senatorial district did not make a mistake in voting for him.”

Olorogun Okumagba, the Udu of Okere-Urhobo Kingdom and Erhuvwu r’Ovie of Agbarha Kingdom, both of Warri South LGA in the Delta South Senatorial District, asked the senator to stay committed to fair representation and the equitable distribution of development among the four indigenous ethnic groups (Ijaw, Isoko, Itsekiri and Urhobo) in the senatorial district as he continues on the rest of his first term.

Olorogun Okumagba urged the three victorious lawmakers to focus on reconciliation and development towards advancing the wellbeing of all Deltans
