Why I Withdrew From Governorship Debate - Omo-Agege

The National leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has dismissed the alleged expulsion of its governorship candidate in Delta state, Senator Ovie-Omo Agege, from the party.

The National Publicity Secretary of APC, Felix Morka, told Vanguard that the APC national does not recognize the factional executive of the party.

He stated that the factional executive was behind the purported expulsion of Omo-Agege from the APC in Delta state.

Recall that the Delta State APC had on Monday expelled the Deputy President of the Senate from being a member of the APC for alleged anti-party activities and other unnamed offences.

The expulsion letter was signed by the Chairman, Ulebor Isaac, on behalf of the State Executive Committee of the Delta APC and Secretary, Inana Michael, and 23 others.

Delta APC unanimously resolved and adopted the expulsion of Omo-Agege as a member of the party by the executive committee of the Orogun ward and Ughelli North Local Government chapter.

The letter reads, “The State Executive Committee of all Progressive Congress Delta State in a meeting held on the 31st March 2023 at the State Secretariat, Asaba, after due deliberation of the Notice of Resolution of Expulsion of Senator Ovie Omo-Agege as a member of the party by the executive committee of the Orogun ward and Ughelli North local government chapter dated 20th March 2023.

“And in accordance with the provision of Article 21.2 (1)(II)(VII) 21.3 and 21.5(g) of the constitution 2022 (as amended), we unanimously resolved and adopted the expulsion of Senator Ovie Omo Agege as a member of the party.

“Consequently, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege hereby stands expelled as a member of the party with immediate effect for various offences committed and acts of anti-party activities and gross misconduct that has brought shame and ridicule to the image of the party in the state which affected the party in the just concluded elections.”
