The Mayor of Urhoboland, Eshanakpe Israel a.k.a Akpodoro has, in advanced congratulatory message to Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, said the people of Delta state are happy with his administration and do not want any interference with the flow of progress ongoing in the oil-rich state.

Governor Sheriff Oborevwori

This was contained in a release made available to newsmen in Abuja, on Thursday, warning that the Supreme Court should be wary not to set confusion in the state he described as fragile.

Deputy senate president, Ovie Omo-Agege

According to Mayor Akpodoro, Delta state electorates have decided who the governor of the state in the next four years should be, saying “that’s why they massively voted for Gov. Oborevwori adding that, tinkering with the wishes of the people under any guise could be counter productive.

The former warlord called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to keep his records of non interference with judicial process clean and unadulterated for justice to achieve its noble cause.

He further stated that the gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC and former Deputy Senate President, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege does not deserve the sympathy and solidarity of the president reminding him of what he described as the perfidious intrigues during the national convention of the broom party.

He alleged that Senator Omo-Agege supported Ahmed Lawan who was his boss in the red chamber at the time of the APC’s national convention.

“I am congratulating Governor Sheriff Oborevwori in advance because I know that the Supreme Court will affirm the wish of the good people of Delta state as expressed at the March 18 gubernatorial election in the state.

“In the interest of peace and justice, the eminent Justices of the apex court should toe the line of honour as done by the lower courts who in their wisdom amplified the peoples’ wish in their verdicts having seen that the people voted massively for Governor Oborevwori.

“I personally wish to congratulate our would-be victorious governor who has been doing everything possible to exit the state the woods and also setting the goals for massive development of the people and the state.

“We didn’t vote for Omo-Agege. The voice of man is the voice of God. Supreme Court should speak for the people and appropriately affirm our governor who we gave the mandate to lead us into more prosperity,” Akpodoro stated.

Pointedly, the Mayor accused Senator Omo-Agege of working against the aspirations and the determination of the southern Nigeria to return to power in tandem with the gentleman’s understanding for power shift from the North to the South in the build up to the 2023 general elections.

He said, former number two Senator in the 8th Assembly has a knack for traitorship, alleging that his betrayal of so many of his political contemporaries including a gubernatorial candidate of one of the political parties in the state who is now a Senior Special Adviser to the current governor in the oil-rich state still resonates in the minds of the people.

“This is a man who never campaigned for our presidential candidate, now President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. He ditched so many notable allies of his.

The apex court should save Delta people from the would-be Omo-Agege feudal, despotic, kleptomaniac rule,” the Gbaregolor Ughelli South, Delta State-born Mayor stated.ding to Mayor Akpodoro, Delta state electorates have decided who the governor of the state in the next four years should be, saying “that’s why they massively voted for Gov.
