Delta 2023: We Won’t Be Intimidated By PDP…. Sen. Omo-Agege

The APC candidate for governor in Delta, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, claimed that the introduction of BVAS voting machines to the country’s electoral process marked the end of the period of political intimidation and violence.

The statement was made on Saturday during the party’s ward-to-ward campaign in the communities of Uzere, Aviara, and Olomoro in the state’s Isoko South Local Government Area by Omo-Agege, who is also the Deputy President of the Senate.

APC members in Isokoland and other areas of the state would not be intimidated, according to the senatorial candidate for Delta Central who said the party would oppose any such move.

“The Political intimidation is over. With the introduction of the BVAS Voting machine by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), be rest assured that we buried the politics of intimidation and violence.

“Let me assure our teeming supporters that there will be adequate security in the next elections. For our supporters and Isoko people who want to vote for APC, come on the days of the elections and vote for us.

“For those planning to intimidate our members, they should know that we will resist them,” Omo-Agege warned.

He urged the electorate in Isoko and other parts of the state to turn out en mass to vote for all APC candidates in the Presidential, National Assembly, Governorship and State Assembly elections, assuring that there would be adequate security.

The lawmaker further assured the people of Delta that their votes would count in the forthcoming elections, adding that the era when election materials were snatched and thumb-printed in political leaders’ homes was gone forever.

At Aviara Kingdom, Omo-Agege told the cheering crowd that his administration resolved and restored the aged-long electrical blackout in the community.

Also, Mr Joel Thomas-Onowhakpo, the APC Delta South Senatorial candidate, urged the people of the state to collect their Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVC) ahead of the forthcoming polls.

He appealed to the electorate in Delta South to vote APC and ensure that PDP was relegated in the state

Thomas-Onowhakpo also urged the people to vote for Omo-Agege as governor, assuring that his administration would bring massive development to all parts of the state.
