Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Delta State, and Deputy Senate President has picked Ossai Osanebi as his running mate for the 2023 gubernatorial election.
Director, Communications and Media Strategy, Delta APC Gubernatorial Campaign Organisation, Ima Niboro, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday in Abuja.
Niboro said the wild jubilation that greeted the announcement of Osanebi, who represents Ndokwa East State Constituency in the Delta State House of Assembly was a clear indication of his wide acceptance as a grassroots politician.
He urged indigenes and residents of Delta State to support the Omo-Agege/Osanebi ticket to build the state, stressing that the team had developed a carefully thought-out roadmap to take the state to greater heights.
“Our constitution only allows one choice and we know that Rt. Hon. Osanebi is a great choice.
“Nonetheless, I am confident that with God on our side and by the electoral will of our people, each eminent person who was considered in the vetting process will be given a chance to add value to public governance in strategic roles after the 2023 general elections.
“I am confident that working with Osanebi as our deputy governorship candidate offers the people of Delta, especially our youths, a unique opportunity to repair our broken leadership foundations and build a new Delta.
“I humbly urge all our people to embrace this as our real chance for true greatness. We are marching toward the New Delta of our dream, and we are unstoppable,” he said.
