For the past eight years, Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege has shown leadership and flair for the development of Delta State. He has his constituency projects cuts across the three Senatorial Districts in Delta State (Central, North, and South).

Some will want to argue that he took the star project, the Federal Polytechnic to his Orogun community. That is a blind argument and senseless propaganda! Today, the school is recruiting and people from across all the tribes in Nigeria sent in their application. The application was not restricted to Orogun indigenes or Urhobos from Delta State.

Out of the eight LGAs in his immediate constituency, there are some with two federal tertiary institutions whilst others have one or two state tertiary institutions. The only one in Ughelli North LGA was used to campaign negatively in the just concluded election by some misguided Urhobo people. One thing they must understand is that henceforth, public office holders will be judged by the Omo-Agege standard.

Fast forward to the just concluded elections in Delta State, the Governorship and State House of Assembly election was grossly rigged by the PDP in Delta State. The outcome was not what the majority of the people of Delta State wanted. As usual, their expectation was cut short by Okowa and the PDP rigging machinery.

I want to assure Deltans that all is now set in motion to set aside the pyrrhic victory of Okowa, Sheriff and the PDP in Delta State. The declaration of Sheriff will be set aside, the people’s mandate will be recovered in no distant time and Senator Ovie Omo-Agege will be sworn in as Governor of Delta State.
