Former Deputy Senate President and ex-Delta State governorship candidate, Ovie Omo-Agege, has explained his exit from the All Progressives Congress, alleging that the party structure in the state was taken over following the defection of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori.
Omo-Agege made the claims during an interview on the Arise TV Morning Show on Wednesday, where he also spoke on internal party disputes, his political future and preparations for the 2027 general elections.
He alleged that loyal APC members who worked for the party during the 2023 elections were sidelined during recent congresses in the state, insisting that the restructuring of the party did not reflect fairness to long-standing members.
Despite his exit, Omo-Agege said he still enjoys strong grassroots support, claiming that over 240,000 supporters who backed him in the 2023 governorship election remain loyal to him.
He said he took his decision after wide consultations with political leaders and supporters
