Deputy Senate President Ovie Omo-Agege has joined the Delta State governorship race.
This was disclosed in a statement from Omo-Agege’s Media Office in Abuja on Wednesday.
The statement reads in part: “Senator Omo-Agege’s governorship campaign message will be basically based on the ‘Edge Agenda’ which focuses primarily on employment and empowerment, development, good governance and enduring security.
“As most Deltans are aware, it is a continuation and expansion of Senator Omo-Agege’s development focus in the much-applauded populist representation of his Senatorial constituency.
Already, numerous communities which have benefited from Senator Omo-Agege’s development initiatives in Delta State have mobilized for participation in the formal declaration ceremony at the Federal University of Petroleum Resources in Effurun on Thursday, April 14.
Also, top members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from other parts of the country are set to storm Delta State to identify with the Obarisi of Urhoboland who has steadfastly promoted the party’s development agenda in the Senate.
The statement said, “During his tenure in the nation’s fifth highest political position, Senator Omo-Agege has sponsored over 25 impactful bills and completed over 300 constituency projects, some of which include: “Replacement of Overloaded and Obsolete Transformer in Wima Road, Abraka, Ethiope East LGA; Replacement of Overloaded and Obsolete Transformer in front of Ovie Palace, Oria, Ethiope East LGA; Replacement of Overloaded and Obsolete Transformer in Okuoloh, Okpara Inland, Ethiope East LGA; Replacement of Overloaded and Obsolete Transformer in Okuidjerhe Ovu, Ethiope East LGA; Replacement of Overloaded and Obsolete Transformer in Umeghe, Ethiope East LGA.
