UGHELLI—OGBE Political Change, a socio- political pressure group, has urged Deltans to support the 2011 governorship ambition of Chief Ovie Omo-Agege.
Speaking during a meeting of the group in Ughelli North Local Government Area, its founder, Chief Ogbe Onokpite, described Chief Omo-Agege as a man whose passion to govern the state was driven by genuine determination to redeem Deltans from the shackles of under development occasioned by bad governance.
Onikpite pointed out that Deltans needed a credible candidate whose prudence and credibility has been tested to be given the opportunity to rule Delta State, adding that he is known for his transparency.
He said: “I know Chief Omo-Agege right from the United States of America. I have been with him and I know his worth. He is a man of few words. If given the privilege to govern Delta State, everybody will no doubt be relieved.
“I am not just saying it because I want him but because of the interest of Urhobo that I have seen in him. The only change Deltans need is Omo-Agege.â€
He charged Deltans, especially Urhobos to embrace the wind of change by supporting him.
In his remark, chairman of the Ughelli North Local Government Area chapter, Mr. Felix Okoro asked Deltans to ignore politics of money and not to allow their conscience to be bought over with peanuts.
He charged members to be focused and be steadfast to the course of ensuring that the message of change is taken to the grassroot.
