Former Deputy President of the Senate, Ovie Omo-Agege, has officially submitted his nomination form to contest for the Delta Central Senatorial District seat in the January 16, 2027 general election under the platform of the All Progressives Congress.
In a statement issued on Thursday, Omo-Agege described the submission of the form as an important milestone in his political journey and a demonstration of his commitment to public service and the advancement of the party’s agenda.
According to him, the decision aligns with the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, the Electoral Act 2022 as amended, as well as the constitution and guidelines of the APC.
The former senator said his ambition was also driven by a desire to support the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu and work closely with Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, towards building a more prosperous and development-oriented Delta State.
Omo-Agege expressed appreciation to APC leaders and members in Delta Central for their continued trust and support, while also commending the party leadership for what he described as a transparent and orderly nomination process.
“As we prepare for the 2027 elections, I remain committed to running an issue-based and peaceful campaign that reflects the aspirations of our people,” he stated.
He further stressed the importance of unity within the APC, urging party stakeholders and supporters to remain focused and united ahead of the elections.
According to him, the people of Delta Central deserve quality representation that is accessible, responsive, and result-driven, pledging to uphold those standards if elected.
Omo-Agege previously represented Delta Central Senatorial District in the Senate and served as Deputy President of the 9th Senate.
