WARRI/Nigeria: Delta All Progressive Congress Senator, Barr Ovie Omo-Agege was today given a heroic welcome by party leaders and faithfuls, saying that those behind the splinter group R’APC in the senate are cowards who will soon be exposed.
Omo-Agege who was received by a marmot crowd at the Osubi Airport, Warri, said that he was elated by the crowd that have defiled the heavy downpour to come and welcome him home, having been away for over three months.
The senator who was accompanied by some party leaders which include; Chief Great Ogboru, Chief Frank Kokori, the state party chairman Prophet Jones Erue and other notable party leaders said that no amount of gang up can stop President Muhammadu Buhari’s re-election in 2019.
Senator Omo-Agege while speaking to journalist at the Airport over his travail in the senate said: “The Urhobo people know that am not a coward and cannot be intimidated by anybody, no matter who is involved, they sent me to the national assembly, and I have represented their interest that is why they came out in their numbers to welcome me back home.
“I am representing 8 local governments, and one guy who is representing just about 5 local government areas will wake up and say he suspended me, and you expect me to pack my load and go home, you know that can’t happen.
He added that “the actions I took at the senate to address the anomaly is what my people expected me to do, and that is what I will continue to do until justice is done, because the 109 senators are equal.”
Speaking also on the prospect of President Buhari in 2019 elections, following the crack in the party leading to the formation of Reformed APC, Omo-Agege was confident that President Buhari would win.
According to him; “We don’t expect the action of the ‘Rejected APC’ that is what they are called to affect the President re-election, because the people in that group are not very important in their different state.
“All though we know those who are behind them, but out of cowardice they will not show their faces for people to know that they are the once sponsoring them, but we know them, especially in the senate but with time they will all be exposed, so, nothing they can do to stop Buhari’s election in 2019. No amount of gang up will affect Buhari’s re-election.”
