The Delta State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has chided Deputy Senate President and All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, over his threat to terminate Governor Ifeanyi Okowa’s vice presidential ambition.
In a statement in Asaba, yesterday, by Chairman, Media and Publicity Committee of its Governorship Campaign Council, Chief Emman Amgbaduba, the PDP said Omo-Agege lacked powers to stop Okowa’s bid.
Amgbaduba, who is the state’s Commissioner for Oil and Gas, said Omo-Agege’s verbal attacks on Okowa were the last kick of a dying horse, adding that the PDP would retire him from politics in 2023.
He said that it was numb for the APC candidate to have made allusions of a third-term agenda by Okowa, describing it as mischievous propagation. Amgbaduba stated further: “We have watched Omo-Agege boasting about terminating Okowa’s vice presidential ambition and also accusing him of having a third-term agenda.
