Deputy Senate President, Omo-Agege Denies Working Against Tinubu's Victory

Deputy Senate President and Delta state gubernatorial candidate in the 2023 polls, Ovie Omo-Agege, has denied claims by Cairo Ojuogbo that he worked against the emergence of Bola Ahmed Tinubu as President-elect.

Ojuogbo, a former Director of Projects at the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, had earlier alleged that the deputy senate president was involved in an anti-party activity by working against Tinubu in Delta State.

But, Omo-Agege said Cairo Ojuogbo does not deserve a response on his recent claim that he worked for the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi, in the March 18 presidential election.

Omo-Agege, in a statement on Saturday issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Sunny Areh, described Ojuogbo as an impetuous irritant.

“Cairo Ojuogbo is an impetuous irritant, a sinking man who does not deserve a response from the Senate’s Deputy President,” he stated.

The duo, Omo-Agege and Ojuogbo, have been at loggerheads since APC lost out in the March 18 Governorship election in Delta State.
