The All Progressives Congress, APC Governorship candidate of Delta State, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege has declared that he won the 2023 election, clean and clear and vowed to reclaim his stolen mandate from the candidate of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Sheriff Oborevwori.
INEC on March 18, 2023, declared Oborevwori of PDP as winner with 360,234 votes, which was over 120, 000 votes above 240,229 votes reportedly scored by Omo–Agege in the election.
Speaking in Abuja on Wednesday, while granting audience to delegates from Ndokwa/Ukwuani, led by former member of the House of representatives Hon. Mercy Almona-Isei, on a thank you visit over the facilitation of Federal University of Medical and Health Sciences in Kwale community, Omo – Agege said the result announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, was a ruse.
”I won the Delta Governorship election conducted in March this year by INEC, clean and clear.
”All the manipulations carried out by PDP in collaboration with some staff of INEC, have been exposed and will be used as exhibits in the court of law.
”I am determined to fight it all the way because the real valid votes scored by me in the election, are more than enough to declare me as the governor– elect.”
On the visitation made to him by the delegation, the Deputy Senate President added that he made the facilitation without any consultation or collaboration with anybody in Delta State.
He said: “I didn’t do it in consultation with anybody. I did it all by myself. If anybody should be thanked for the university, it should be President Muhammadu Buhari and the Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu.”
He however admonished the Hon. Mercy Almona–Isei led delegation from Ndokwa/Ukwuani that compensation should not be attached to the 100 hectares of land donated for the University, saying ” the issue of ownership of shrine or farm should not arise from any quarters.
