Former Deputy Senate President and governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the 2023 general election, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, has urged party members to unite to defeat the major opposition in the forthcoming 2027 election.
Omo-Agege made this statement during stakeholders’ meetings with party elders, leaders, and members at Obiaruku and Kwale in Ukwuani and Ndokwa West Local Government Areas. He emphasized that the party must not dwell on past election mistakes, stating, “We must work harder to ensure victory in 2027.”
He commended APC members for their resilience during the 2023 elections, noting that the party’s loss in the governorship race was not due to a lack of support. He urged party leaders in the Ndokwa Nation to unite, saying, “We need everybody to come together and work as a team because the end of one election marks the beginning of another.”
Omo-Agege appealed for unity, adding, “I appeal to you all, let us put aside our differences and focus on what unites us. No one enters an election divided and expects to win.” He stressed the importance of the APC remaining focused, highlighting the need for unity, discipline, and strategic planning.
He also pointed to one of his key achievements: the establishment of the Federal University of Health Sciences in Kwale. He said the institution would provide quality education and drive economic growth in the state.
Omo-Agege reiterated his commitment to the party’s success, stating, “We must work harder to ensure victory in 2027. Overcoming the PDP’s influence requires unity, discipline, and strategic planning. We cannot simply rest on the outcome of the last election. We must continue to strive to change it, to ensure that APC prevails in Delta in 2027.”
He further emphasized the importance of collective action, saying, “To overcome the challenges posed by the PDP, we need unity and collective action. I encourage you all to rise above sentiments and distractions, focusing instead on our shared goal of defeating the PDP.”
Omo-Agege assured stakeholders of his dedication to fostering unity within the party, stating, “I assure you that efforts will be made to bring everybody on board to ensure a united front against the PDP in the next election. I am committed to APC 100 per cent and willing and ready to work with all the leaders and members of the party and supporters of our party.”
Reaffirming his support for President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, Omo-Agege said, “We must also win Delta State for APC in the presidential election in 2027 to sustain the country’s economic transformation of President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.”
He highlighted the successes of the agenda, noting, “The agenda has already yielded significant gains, including higher revenue for states and local governments, better economic growth rates, declining imports, higher exports, and higher income for farmers. To sustain this momentum and ensure the long-term growth and development of our country, it’s crucial we reelect President Tinubu in 2027.”
