On Saturday, true Deltans who have pined for respite from PDP’s death-hold on the state, will BAND together to vote for Ovie Omo-Agege.
Omo-Agege is the cutting edge to build the Delta State of our dreams. What has stood him on a higher pedestal than his opponents is the undeniable track record of laudable achievements in just eight years as a legislator without executive power.
But back to the son who will be governor. If Senator Omo-Agege had served only one term, as all of his predecessors, he would still have boasted the longest list of achievements. His re-election to a second term, coinciding with his elevation to the post of deputy Senate president, effectively made him the highest ever public office holder in all of Urhoboland and, arguably, Delta State.
Seven years ago, when Delta State turned twenty-five years old, I published the article “A Silver Jubilee Dream of Delta State” in which I first lamented as I do now. “The Peoples Democratic Party’s power monopoly,” I said, “has been nothing short of a heart attack to the “Big Heart” state, as it has been to the country. The vulgar notion of power for its brute sake and obscene self-enrichment has become the ethos of the state’s politics.
