Delta State All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for the 2023 elections, and deputy senate president Ovie Omo – Agege, said Delta State is being gradually consumed by politics of hate, exclusion and arrogance.
In a tweet titled: “The case for a new Delta”, on Thursday October 13, Omo – Agege opined: “ There is a broad consensus that the PDP has mismanaged our resources and consigned Delta to permanent underdevelopment, as it has no vision for development politics.”
The senator added: “Daily, the PDP sacrifices merit, professionalism and decency on the altars of mediocrity and immorality to the extent that, many within the PDP itself, now overwhelmingly agree that the PDP has outlived its usefulness.
“But that will never happen. They are still living in a wrong past. Because they are an existential danger to our people, we will stop them. Because the conscience of Deltans is against the ungodliness and mess that PDP has plunged our state, they will be stopped.
“They have sailed the ship of our state into troubled waters. We are rapidly losing our place in the comity of states as violence, cultism and all sorts of mafia-style behaviors now reign freely in our communities.
“Our values of respect, handwork, integrity and self- worth are being speedily eroded. In all of these, the Delta PDP does not care. In fact, the few unrepentant controllers of its soul are recklessly plotting to extend its hold on power through electoral corruption.
“Because there cannot be any sustainable progress with PDP’s suffocating corruption and mediocrity, we will stop them. They are on the wrong side of history.”
