Accept Defeat, Congratulate Oborevwori, Delta PDP Tells Omo-Agege
Delta State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party has called on the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship Candidate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege to accept the outcome of the Governorship Election in the state and congratulate the PDP Governorship Candidate, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori who is already coasting home to victory.
The State Commissioner for Information, Mr Charles Aniagwu made the call in a statement on Monday in Asaba.
He said contrary to the wrongful assertion by the APC, the Delta State Governorship and House of Assembly elections followed due process and was conducted in consonance with relevant laws chiefly among is the Electoral Act 2022 as amended.
The results duly collated from the various units, wards and local government areas have so far been adjudged as free, fair, credible and transparent and winners have been emerging across the State Constituencies.
It is however disturbing that the APC that unleashed terror on innocent voters in Ughelli North and parts of Ethiope west could turn around to point accusing fingers at others
So far, 23 local government areas have been duly collated and the PDP won in 19 LGAs while the APC won in 4 LGAs.
The APC having won 6 State Constituencies cannot turn around to describe the election as non complying with the provisions of the Electoral Act 2022 as amended.
We thank Deltans for their unalloyed support and solidarity with the PDP even as we promised to continue delivering on the Okowa mandate till the last day of this administration.
We therefore call on the APC Governorship Candidate and Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege to do the needful expected of democrats and call on his brother, the PDP Governorship Candidate, Rt. Hon Sheriff Oborevwori to congratulate him on his well deserved victory at the polls.
