GROUP CAUTION OKOWA-LED GOVT TO WAKEUP TO IT'S RESPONSIBILITY AS EDUCATION IS DEAD UNDER GOV. OKOWA'S WATCH

A social political pressure group known as Grassroot Development Initiative (GDI) has call on the attention of Delta State Governments on the deplorable state of learning environments in Delta public Schools across the state. This seems to be having mental setback on our Students ability to comprehend and equally creating a bad pictures of our d

ear State,to the outside World.

Schools environment happens to be one of the highest employer of Workers in the civil service, where greater population of  Students/Teachers and other Support staff spent most of their time in life. Anything short of making this sub populated Community in our State conducive for learning and living, will sure have a negative impact on the health condition of lives there.Which in addition will affect the expectant quality of learning derived there and the end product of graduates

In a State with three Commissioners of Education,one wouldn't have expected horrible pictures like this to have gone unnoticed and addressed appropriately.The education ministry has overtime enjoyed greater budgetary allocations in the past and this is evidence in the recently presented one to the House of Assembly, which makes it to be second only to works.

Grassroot Development Initiative wish to call on Delta State Governments for urgent attention to be granted to Iwhreko Primary School Ughelli, Adagwe Secondary School Erhuemukowharien, College of Commerce Igbudu, Agabi Memorial School Eku, Iwe Primary School Eku, Erhuvware Primary School, Kokori Grammar School, Alaka Primary School Okpe among others...

DELTA STATE FORUM-UK ADVOCACY GAIN BOOST AS MAN IN DELTA STATE DONATES CHAIRS TO SCHOOL WHERE PUPILS SIT ON BARE FLOOR.

The continue advocacy of Delta State Forum-UK for Good Governance gain boost recently as a young Man named, Eyela Efe donated chairs to Okome Primary School In Oghara, Delta State.

Speaking to our reporter,, Eyela Efe said he was touched to donate the chairs when he visited the school following the continue advocacy of Delta State Forum-UK for good Governance and exposing the Government inability to prioritize education.

It's important to note the subsequent call on Government and individuals on the failed system of our Public School by various organizations especially on the Social Media platform which raised concerned of everyone to visit the school.

According to him, "I didn't do it for the purpose of gaining cheap fame, rather i felt touched the day i saw those pupils sitting on the bare floor to recieve classes while i was distributing writing and learning materials to selected schools pupils in Ethiope Federal Constituency, including Okomo Primary school, Oghara.

"At the sight of this ugly situation where kids who were sent to school to learn are sitting on the floor, i was deeply worried and touched, then i made myself a promise that i must do something to Elevate those little kids from the floor, even if not all of them." He said

The donor commended various nongovernmental organization for their advocacy for good Governance on different Social Media Platform. He further promised to make more chairs the moment he gets more funds to boost the education carrier of our children he noted.

GOV. OKOWA LIED: EDUCATION IS NOT HIS PRIORITY, STUDENTS STILL SIT ON BARE FLOOR TO LEARN IN DELTA PUBLIC SCHOOLS

His Excellency, Gov. Ifeanyi Okowa in a statement severally has publicly proclaimed that education remained his “topmost priority.” However, barely few weeks of resumption for the 2021/2022 academic session.

 It was obvious facts that Gov. Okowa lied, Education was not, is not, and most probably will never be his topmost priority, as students/Pupils in Delta public Schools still learn on a bare floor while in most cases under a dilapidated building amongst others.

Our reporter who went round some Delta public Secondary and Primary School across the three Senatorial District recently lamented that, despite huge Oil Revenue amongst other Internally Generated funds of the State students in public schools still sit on bare floor under a dilapidated building to learn.

At Emiye Girls Grammar School, a 41 year old secondary school in Oleh, headquarters of Isoko South Local Government, Delta state, students were still sitting on bare floor under a dilapidated building to learn. 

It was further discovered that many of the classrooms had no single furniture, while in others cases; they were not commensurate with the numbers of students in the class.

The story was not different in  some other parts of the state visited, Schools in Aliagwai, Aliokpu, Oki, Agbor, Ewuru Abavo just to mention but few and all were also in a bad condition amongst others across the three Senatorial District of Delta State.

In all the schools visited students were visibly seen sitting on the bare floor to learn while others were hanging on the classroom Windows

However, when our reporter requested to learn more about why a public school of such reputes could not provide furniture sets for its students, the School Heads. denied comments for fear of being victimized by the State Government.

However, some of the students who spoke to our reporter complained bitterly about the situation. We also want to use this medium to plead with the Government to also assist us with school desks. We don’t have boards, we don’t have chairs, some of us are sitting on the windows, our classes are bad, we don’t have windows, and we don’t have drinking water.

Even for the restroom we don’t have one and if you need to toilet, you either do it in the bush or go home. If we want to drink or use water from inside the school, we must go outside the school compound which is not too good. “We don’t have teachers for some subjects, like Security Studies, History, French, we need qualified teachers to teach us these subjects.”

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE CHAIRMAN, CARETAKER/EXTRAORDINARY CONGRESSES AND CONVENTION PLANNING COMMITTEE,

The Chairman,

Caretaker/extraordinary Congresses and Convention Planning Committee,

All Progressives Congress(APC),

40, Blantyre Street, Wuse II, Abuja,

 

Dear Sir,

 

A CALL FOR THE CANCELLATION OF DELTA STATE APC WARD CONGRESS

 

We, members of the Delta state APC state working committee, the Delta state leader's council and other notable leaders of this great party wish to draw your attention to the brazen undemocratic acts, non compliance with Congress guidelines and serious case of exclusion in the conduct of the 31st July, 2021 ward Congress in Delta state.

 

We are sure that the CECPC decision to send the National secretariat staff to the states for the sales and receiving of congress application forms was to ensure open, credible and fair congress all over Nigeria.

 

 

The sales and receiving of Congress Application Forms, in Delta State, was handled by a three (3) man National Committee. The members are Mr. George Ojong Egbe, Mrs. Abibu Madina and Mr. Nkem Sunday. The Committee members informed State Party Executive Council members that on arrival in Delta State on Tuesday 20th July, 2021 they were not met by the party State Chairman. Rather they were directed by the Personal Aide to the Deputy Senate President (name withheld) to another Aide(name withheld) to the Deputy Senate President who impersonated the State Organizing  Secretary, and with the assistance of Police detail who escorted them from Abuja to Asaba, zoomed off with the 6 bags of materials. Thus, the Aides of the Deputy Senate President snatched/hijacked the materials for the Delta State APC Congress.

 

This led to the following blatant disregard for guidelines of the party:

 

 

• It is worthy of note in the light of the above development that sales of forms did not commence until Saturday, 24th July, 2021 after the committee had gotten clearance from the headquarters to commence sales from the returned 3bags dumped at the party secretariat late in the night of Thursday, July 22nd, 2021.

 

• At the close of sales and submission of ward congress forms on the 28th July, 2021, Eight Thousand, Six Hundred (8,600) aspirants who have paid into party accounts and arrived with their tellers could not obtain the forms due to non availability of forms.

 

• Aspirants, who bought forms from the 3 bags of returned forms dumped at the party secretariat late in the night of Thursday, July 22nd, 2021 by unknown persons from the initially hijacked/snatched 6 bags, could not submit same due to the absence of officials.

 

• The Women Rep in the CECPC in a meeting on Friday, July 23rd,2021 at ELOMAS hotel in what smack of complicity prevailed on state officials to kill the story of snatched/hijacked materials.

 

She promised that in the event of scarcity of forms, she will make available enough forms but did not fulfil the promise.

 

 

• The screening of aspirants meant for the 29th July and 30th July, 2021 did not take place.

 

 

• The seven (7) man Ward Congress Committee (WCC), comprising members from outside the state, set up to conduct the ward congress exercise in Delta State, did not do their jobs. They did not call a stakeholder meeting to intimate party faithful about their assignment.

 

• The three (3) man Local Ward Congress Committee (LWCC), as stipulated in the congress guidelines, to oversee the exercise in the 270 wards all over Delta State, was not constituted.

 

• The venues of ward congresses were not communicated to stakeholders.

 

 

 

• All the activities contained in the guidelines were meant to ensure inclusiveness for all party members. The conduct of ward congress on the 31st July, 2021 in Delta State is a case of exclusion of over eight thousand aspirants who bought forms before the close of entries and armed with their tellers but were not given forms due to the unfortunate situation above .

 

• The leaders of the party in Delta State frantically called CECPC members to address the above anomaly, but nobody was ready to take any decision.  

 

To disenfranchise over 8,000 aspirants is the most blatant act of internal democratic tyranny that must be abhorred by all. This if allowed to happen or sustained, will consign our democratic credentials as a ruling party to a permanent hall of infamy such that the party and its leaders will suffer irreparable integrity dent as well as loss of political democratic esteem.

 

Members of the State Exco, through the 3 man National Sales and receiving of Congress Forms Committee and APC Leaders in the state, urged the CECPC to postpone the ward congress in Delta State to allow the party members participate but received no response.

 

We, therefore, use this medium to call on the CECPC and President Muhammadu Buhari (GCFR) whom we have copied as the leader of the party to save the Delta State APC by cancelling the ward Congress of 31st July, 2021 and re-conduct a ward congress in Delta state with duely constituted local organizing committee for the 270 wards with the input of critical stakeholders to have an all inclusive Congress in Delta State.

POLITICS: RELISHING THE PACEMARK OF A PACESETTER, DR CAIRO OJOUGBOH

Unarguably one of Delta State's seasoned political icon endowed with immeasurable quintessence and dexterity towards advancing the course of humankind, Dr. Cairo Ojougboh's astituteness and political dossier will blow your mind anytime and any day. His landmark achievements and strong political tentacles that cut across the Nigerian political sphere speak volumes of a pragmatic leader with a difference and clear vision to liberate the oppressed.

Going by his professional training as a medical doctor and robust political record, this rare breed and energetic political trailblazer is both a great gift and priceless asset to humanity. Little wonder he has continued to capture the attention of reknown democrats in the political field of play obviously due to his sagacity and clear demonstration as a man who knows his values and the rules to abide regardless of the circumstances he faces while speaking for the downtrodden.

Call him the "Soja" of truth or truth personified, you are neither wrong nor far from the truth. It has remained the core of his integrity and influence over the years to lead forthrightly. In fact, it has really endeared him immensely to the hearts of his people and true democrats and allowed them to understand the political values they are committed to uphold and relish. As a union leader as an undergraduate during his days in the University, he stood firmely that equity, justice and fairplay have no substitute. He has till date justified this truism through his resillience to uphold it and constantly demonstrating that politics is service to the people .

Often misunderstood for gluing to the side of truth at any given time and his ideas misconstrued by naive political opponents, the one-time Federal Lawmaker, has remained unmoved and unperturbed for as long as truth remains the only potent weapon againt misgovernance and injustice. It will therefore, not be out of place to call the traducers of Dr. Cairo Ojougboh the haters of truth.

For example, Dr. Cairo Ojougboh has neither minced his words nor shifted his grounds on his irrevocable commitment to ensuring that the well-naurished and well-nurtured impunity in Nigeria eradicated in the interest of Nigerians and our narcent democracy. A gross impunity and this is what Dr. Cairo Ojougboh stands against. Impunity anywher is the height of political rascality, intimidation and oppression and Dr. Cairo Ojougboh says it is unhealthy and unacceptable.

On my end, I can't help nodding in agreement with this rare breed medical doctor cum politician that impunity is anti-democracy and open injustice in its entirety. In fact, am delighted at Dr. Cairo Ojougboh's stand against it especially as he firmly hold onto his stands.

THE HIJACKED / DISAPPEARED DELTA APC WARD CONGRESS FORMS HAVE REAPPEARED.

The story of the hijacked Delta APC ward congress forms, can be likened to the story of a man who admires a drummer in his neighbourhood whenever he plays his drum, and one day, he decided to steal the drum.

Now the question is, where would he play drum? Because if he dares to play that drum, the whole neighborhood would catch a thief that day.

In this situation, the man, just realised that he can not play the drum he stole, because he would be caught,so he has decided to come out and say the drum is with him, that he took it for safe keeping.

Mr Jones Erue, the question is, like the case of the drum, where and how did u get those forms? And who told you those forms are not safe in the hands of the rightful owners or handlers? And since when did you become a security agent that goes around looking for People's properties to take to your home for safety against their consent?

On a normal note, I would not have bothered to respond to such frivolities and baseless position of that impostor called Barr. Imonina, a media Aide to Mr Jones Erue, in the press statement he made in the guise of being the State Publicity Secretary of our party. But for purpose of clarity and to disabuse the minds of the public from their misguided and misleading statements, aimed at distorting the truth, I want to state  the facts clearly.

Nick Ovuakporie, a personal Aide to Jones Erue the Delta State APC Caretaker Committee Chairman, impersonated the State Organising Secretary, Sir A S. Mene, then forcefully and fraudulently collected and made away with all the ward congress forms brought from Abuja, with the hope of depriving anybody who's not working for the Deputy President of the Senate, from getting the form to contest for any position in the forthcoming ward congresses.

Shockingly I read on social media platforms when one of Mr. Jones Erue's Media Assistants, Barr. Imonina wrote in defence of the shameful act of his boss, the State Chairman Mr Jones Ode Erue. who instructed his security details, to escort Mr. Nick Ovuakporie on the mission to forcefully and fraudulently collect the ward congress forms from the Representatives of the National, who brought them from Abuja, claiming he's A S. Mene, the State Organising Secretary, which made the people talk with him freely, unknowing he was there for a shameful mission.

Now let me address the issues in that watery press release in defence of their criminality, by asking Barr. Imonina and Mr. Jones Ode Erue, some very vital questions, that would bring out the truth about this shameful and most unfortunate act 

(1), Firstly, I want Barr. Imonina to tell the leadership of the party and the public, who is Mr. Nick Ovuakporie in APC Delta State, and what business has he, with the state ward congress materials, that he went to hijack them from the people who brought them from Abuja?

(2), Secondly, I want Barr. Imonina to tell the public, if Mr Jones Erue, has met those representatives from Abuja before, and how those ward congress forms got to the hands of Mr. Jones Ode Erue?

(3), Barr. Imonina should also tell the public if the National Leadership of APC, ever at anytime said Jones should collect the material from the representatives from Abuja and handle the sales of the forms himself?

(4), Barr. Imonina, should also tell the public, what section of the APC constitution gives powers to Jones Ode Erue, to send his boy Nick Ovuakporie, to forcefully, hijack the ward congress forms, claiming he Nick Ovuakporie is the state Organising Secretary of the party?

(5), in the porpoted press release, Mr. Jones  Ode Erue, claims the forms are with him for safekeeping, that they did not steal or hijack those forms. Can Barr. Imonina, or Mr. Jones Erue, tell the public how and when he became a security agent with the authority or constitutional powers, to forcefully hijacks or seize party material from party Reps from the national, using his boys and illegal security operatives.

(6), According to Barr. Imonina in his press statement, Mr. Jones Ode Erue claims, he has the constitutional right to take possession of the ward congress forms and sell them himself, against the directive of the National Chairman. Can Barr. Imonina, or Jones Erue, prove this point to the general public, by referring us to the section of the APC constitution that gives Mr. Jones Erue such powers and authority?

Not to make the write-up too bulky, I think I should just stop at this, but with one final question for Mr. Jones Erue and his media assistant, Barr. Imonina, Since the party has granted a waiver to Jones and all those who have served before, which means Jones is likely contesting for the chairmanship again, does it make sense to both of them, that an aspirant would be the one selling forms to other aspirants?

As I await their responses, I am,

Mr. Felix Ogbotor Okpako.

State Publicity Secretary, (Caretaker Committee), APC, Delta State.

PUBLIC NOTICE! PUBLIC NOTICE!! PUBLIC NOTICE!!!

The attention of the State Executive Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Delta State, has been drawn to a press release by one Mr Nick Ovuakporie, purportedly authorised by Mr. Jones Ode Erue, the State Caretaker Committee Chairman, discrediting the authority and authenticity of the Delta State APC College of Leaders.

The State Executive Committee is using this medium to officially notify the general public that, the said press release is a scam and does not portray, transmit or represent the decision or resolution of the State Executive Committee (SEC) or the State Working Committee (SWC) of our Party.

Therefore, we urge all Party faithful and leaders to ignore the said press release and treat same as a mere sycophantic propaganda aimed at abusing and confusing the minds  of the unsuspecting public.

Whatever Jones Ode Erue, instructs his personal Aide and Isoko brother, NICK OVUAKPORIE, to write, does not represent the position and decision of the Delta State APC State Executive Committee (SEC) or the State Working Committee (SWC).

We want to state here in clear terms, for the avoidance of doubt, that the National Caretaker Chairman/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee of our Party, H.E. Mai Mala Buni, appointed and inaugurated a South South Peace/Conflict Resolution Committee, headed by H.E. Chief John Odigie Oyegun, former National Chairman of our great Party.

The South South Peace Committee met with stakeholders of the Party in all the six states of the South South region, and proferred solutions to the problems bedeviling the various States, including Delta State.

The Committee met severally with Delta State APC Stakeholders, and finally all stakeholders, agrees that there should be a college of leaders, four per Senatorial District, to oversee the affair of the party in the State. Among the 12man college of leaders, they on their own, without imposition, selected a Chairman, Co-Chairman and a Secretary, who are:

Olorogun Festus Keyamo (SAN), the Honourable Minister representing Delta State as Chairman, Dr. Alex Ideh, from Delta South as Co-Chairman and Rt. Hon. Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, from Delta North as Secretary. (All chosen from the three Senatorial Districts) This solution proferred by the H.E Odigie Oyegun led Committee, has since been submitted to the National Leadership of the Party as a working blueprint for peace and progress in Delta APC.

The State Executive Committee, is hereby reiterating our position, for purpose of clarity,

that we are happy with the development and appreciate the Chief Oyegun led peace committee for the good work and their wisdom in setting up the leaders college, as a roadmap to a lasting peace in Delta APC.

We also state clearly, that we appreciate the proactive steps of the leaders college, in bringing all stakeholders together to move the Party forward.

We appreciate their resolve to come together and let go their individual egos  and pride. And putting the Party's interest above theirs. We say thank you to our great leaders.

We also want to plead with our leaders, not to allow that sycophantic display of shame by our Caretaker Committee Chairman, Jones Ode Erue, to deter them in their determination to bring Delta APC back on track again.

We do understand that the Deputy President of the Senate, Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege, is so far the only leader that is not in tune with the measures put in place to see that APC moves forward. 

We therefore encourage our leaders not to relent in their efforts to carry him along, while they continue to build the Party. The leaders should call on the national leadership of the Party to approach him, on the need to work with other leaders to move the Party forward. We need all hands on deck, for us to be able to take over the State.

HOW SENATOR OVIE OMO-AGEGE SCAMMED CHIEF BENARD OKUMAGBA OF THREE BILLION NAIRA

HOW SENATOR OVIE OMO-AGEGE SCAMMED CHIEF BENARD OKUMAGBA OF THREE BILLION NAIRA (#3,000,000,000.00)

------By Anthony Iboyitie (Warri) 17/07/2021.

It has been revealed how Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, the Deputy President of the Senate scammed Chief Benard Okumagba of three billion naira.

According to a source close to Chief Okumagba, (the MD designate of the illegally constituted and screened NDDC board, that was disbanded by President Buhari), the DSP Ovie Omo-Agege, collected a whooping sum of three billion naira from Chief Okumagba, to recommend and ensure he was made the Managing Director of the NDDC.

According to the report, the DSP Ovie Omo-Agege claimed the money was for him to settle some cabals at the presidency, for the appointment to be approved, while he would ensure the Senate screened him with easy

In the said arrangements, the DSP has it in black and white with Chief Benard Okumagba on the percentage kickback that would accrue to him, Ovie Omo-Agege, from every contract that would be executed by the NDDC, While his proxies will front for him to execute some of the contracts.

It was also on record that before any major contract would be approved by Chief Benard Okumagba, it must be with the consent of Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege.

Another agreement reached by the duo was that, 80% of the Aides to Chief Okumagba would come from Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege, this was why he already gave out the various Aide positions to his boys, even before Chief Okumagba would be sworn in.

The aforementioned, accounts for Mr. Tuoyo Mabiaku's appointment as a personal Assistant to Chief Benard Okumagba, on youth matters, as was revealed by one  miss Princess from Delta State, who revealed that Mr. Tuoyo Mabiaku is Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege's boy that led the team of thugs that invaded the NASS, to steal the mace.

According to the inside source who pleaded anonymity, when the illegally constituted and screened NDDC board was canceled by president Buhari, and seeing that it was not going to be possible again for that canceled board to be reconstituted and sworn-in , Chief Benard Okumagba, then demanded for the refund of the three billion naira bribe Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege collected from him.

From the report, the DSP Ovie Omo-Agege, claimed the money has already been used to settle certain persons in the presidency.

Seeing that Agege was not willing to refund the money, Benard then reported it to his elder sister, who according to reports helped Chief Okumagba to raise that money through loans.

Chief Okumagba's elder sister then went to Sen. Omo-Agege's house to fight him, that he must return the money since the appointment didn't scale through, this issue became a very big embarrassment to the Deputy President of the Senate, who knew if this goes out to the public, would dent his reputation.

At this point, the Deputy Senate President has to humble himself to avoid this information leaking out, he then promised to fight back to make sure the canceled illegally screened board, is reconstituted to save his face. That is why he has been fighting so despirately, to remove Sen. Akpabio from the Niger-Delta Ministry, so he could have his way through whoever will replace Sen. Akpabio, since Akpabio is already aware of his plans to milk the NDDC dry and would not allow him to have his way in the NDDC.

Today the DSP Ovie Omo-Agege's reputation is seating on a keg of gunpowder, if he fails to secure the reappointment of Chief Okumagba, as the NDDC boss, then he would be ready to vomit the three billion naira immediately, or I'm sure he would not dare step his feet in Warri again, because it will be an open war of thuggery and diabolism.

As we await the Constitution of a new NDDC board, we use this opportunity to plead with the Senate President to advise his deputy, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege to please start raising the money, so should Chief Okumagba miss the appointment, he would have the money handy and refund their money to save his face and perhaps save the residents of Warri, that may suffer the consequences of the actions of their thugs.

THE DESPIRATION OF SEN. OVIE OMO-AGEGE'S QUEST FOR POWER.

The biggest undoing of any man, is for him to despirately go after a man that is not even bothered about who you are and what you stand for.

I am tempted to sometimes wander if truly Sen. Augustine Ovie Omo-Agege, qualified as a lawyer, but for the fact that he practiced in the United States and was arrested for fraud and his liscence to practice law suspended for two years.

I would have sworn on oath, that he forged the certificate he's using.

I know some persons may want to wander why I ever thought of his certificate being fake, the reason is very simple, his activities, do they purtray that of a qualified lawyer?

Having been convinced that he did not fake his certificate as a lawyer, I can conclude that he's not a very smart man, little wander why they easily caught him in almost, if not all his fraudulent activities in the United State, ranging from forging signatures in bank cheques, to multiple identities of various degree of felony.

Like the saying,  whoever want to go to equity must do so with clean hands. Why would anybody of Ovie Omo-Agege's status, knowing how stained his hands are and how loaded his cupboards are with skeletons, still allow his over zealous Aides and errand boys to ever compare him with the likes of Rt. Hon. Dr. Cairo Ojougboh and Rt. Hon. Engr. Barr. Victor Ochei?

These are men of honour, who's hands are clean and pure, never been found guilty of any form of offence or criminal activity before, not to talk of identity theft and forgery of any sort.

Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege,is a man without character a man who has been arrested tried and sentenced for criminal activities in the United States of America.

Sen. Augustine Ovie Omo-Agege has been found guilty of forging the signature of another man to defraud him of nine hundred and seventy dollars, ($970.00) that's about a thousand dollars. (The records are there)

Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege was also tried and found guilty of identity theft, he registered different identity cards,same Augustine Ovie Omo-Agege bearing different names in the United States,with which he commits fraud and various felony crimes. All these crimes are on record.

As a result of Sen. Augustine Ovie Omo-Agege's involvement in numerous financial and identity crimes, his liscence to practice law in the United States was revoked and he was barred from legal practices for two years in 1995.

After sometime,as a result of frustration, seeing he couldn't practice law anymore and could no longer thrive in his advance fee fraud (419) business, since the FBI has placed their satalite on him, he decided to relocate to Nigeria, from where he delved into  politics through his father's influence, being a personal ally of Chief James Ibori, the then governor of Delta State, who made him Augustine Ovie Omo-Agege his Aide.

Briefly for about three months, Chief Ibori made Ovie Omo-Agege, the transition SSG of Delta State, while the then SSG Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan resigned to run for the Governorship, within that space of three month, being who he his, a fraud and and a despirado, unknown to Chief Ibori, Ovie Omo-Agege, gathered so many vital documents relating to Chief Ibori's fraudulent activities as a Governor.

Ovie Omo-Agege used those documents to blackmail Chief James Ibori, he threatened to make those documents available to the EFCC, if Chief Ibori does not make him the governor of the state.

Chief Ibori who saw him as a spoilt little brat without good upbringing, just drove him far from him and never allowed him to come anywhere near him again.

Shockingly, Ovie Omo-Agege took those documents to Chief E.K Clarke and today we all know what that led to. (CHIEF JAMES IBORI'S ORDEAL).

The despiration for power has been driving Ovie Omo-Agege from one party to another since then, and he has been failing in all elections he contested, Deltans know him and nobody wanted to have anything to do with his likes politically.

This streak of failure continued from one election to another, until he went to beg Chief Great Ovedje Ogboru, the arrow head of opposition in Delta State, to help him and project him for Senate, since Ogboru's candidates always win the Delta Central Senate seat.  Ogboru pitied him and projected him, today he's not just the Senator representing Delta Central, but the Deputy President of the Senate.

Painfully, like the saying goes, a leopard can never change its colour.

Ovie Omo-Agege, like he did to Chief Ibori, he struck again, biting the finger that fed him. Truly, no matter how much detergent u use to wash a dog's nose, it will always remain black. (A child of perdition)

This same Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, brought Nigeria to ridicle before the international community, when he led a team of thugs, to snatch the mace of the Senate.

I saw a post purportedly written by his paid media boys, saying Ovie Omo-Agege has been cleared of that charge. I just laughed. The people who went to snatch that mace are not spirits, they are presently Aides to the Deputy President of the Senate, so how do you justify your claim that he's not the one who used the thugs to snatch the mace?

Today I dare the IGP to arrest one of Ovie Omo-Agege's Aides, by the name Tuoyo Mabiaku, from Sapele. He is always there with Ovie Omo-Agege in his office there in the NASS, I even saw him there at the Senate two days ago, they should arrest him and check the CCTV footage, they will see him there, he was among those who stole the mace.

When Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege in his usual character, fraudulently manipulated a list of NDDC board to the Senate on behalf of the president for confirmation, he put in it the name of one of his allies in PDP, Chief Benard Okumagba, as the MD of the Commission. It was the same Tuoyo Mabiaku the leader of the thugs that stole the mace, that he Agege made the Special Assistant to Chief Benard Okumagba on youth matters. Let him debunk this and let the IGP arrest Tuoyo Mabiaku to confirm all these. The CCTV footage is there to identify Tuoyo Mabiaku as the leader of the thugs. He was the one shouting at the Senators, threatening to attack any of then who go close to them as they make away with the mace .

Another proof, that Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege led his thugs to steal the mace, we all remember last year, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege lost one of his Aides, it was all over the social media space, as people were flooding him with condolence messages. The evidences are there, as proof that the late Blessing, who was working with the Warri task force that holds traffic offenders, was among the thugs Ovie Omo-Agege used to steal the mace. (See CCTV footage and social media Obituary condolences to Ovie Omo-Agege)

Is that the person a sane Nigerian is using to compare, The Hon. Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, or Rt. Hon. Engr. Barr. Victor Ochei?

All I see in this unwarranted unslaught on the person of Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, is nothing but the fangs of a dieing or drowning man, who's demonic thought is just how to drag as many people he can drag with him.

Ovie Omo-Agege in his greed and despiration has shot his own legs, with his strained relationship with his benefactor, Chief Great Ovedje Ogboru, as a result of his greed and despirate quest for power, he can never win any election in Delta Central again.

Today his only hope would have been the support from the duo of Rt. Victor Ochei and Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, but today, he's fighting both of them, now together with the entire Delta North APC, they have come out openly that they don't want to support any despirate politician who destroys anyone who helps him to see light, and that for disgracing Delta State at the Senate, they would not support any mace rustler to become the governor of Delta State. 

My question now is, what has Dr. Cairo, or Rt. Ochei and the entire Delta North APC done wrong? Did they lie against him in any way? Or don't they have right to support a man of integrity and  credible character to be the governor of the state? Is Ovie Omo-Agege saying everybody must support a mace rustler by fire by force?
