Delta APC Guber Candidate, Omo Age-Agege Announces Running Mate

The Deputy Senate President, Ovie Omo-Agege, has reacted to the structure of the All Progressives Congress in the South-South.

The senator representing the Delta State central senatorial district has called on the party to consider restructuring the party in the region to strengthen it for future challenges.

In his statement, he claimed that re-organizing the party from now will give it a chance in the 2023 general election.

He further stated that this will help change that the region is a stronghold of the Peoples Democratic Party.

The Senator stated this when South-South APC members led by the National Vice Chairman, Ntufam Eta paid him a visit to congratulate him at his residence in Abuja following his emergence as deputy Senate president.

“The party in the south-south needs to be rejigged. You provided leadership for us, we want you to continue to provide that leadership but the difference now will be the support you are lacking, the support the party did not have then, with this platform given to us, as a party man, we are going to provide the support for you to have a vibrant party because some of us feel bad when we hear that south-south is a PDP zone.”

“Some of us were in PDP and we know what we need to do to wipe all those things away from the political space but people need to understand that if you provide enabling environment for our party people, they will succeed but if we just render ab-initio that that area is a PDP stronghold, leave them because they are not many, it will be a challenge and that is the challenge we have been having but God-willing, we are going to change that narrative.”

“We are going to provide the support to the party for it to grow and be competitive so that as we head towards 2023, we will have a chance to prove to our brothers and sisters in the south-south that we are ready.”
