Omo-Agege Says Deltans Won't Regret Having Him As A Governor

 

Former Secretary to the Delta State Government, Obaisi Ovie Omo-Agege, has assured Deltans that they will not regret having him as governor if given the mandate to rule the state in 2015.

He gave the assurance while addressing executive members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ughelli North, Ughelli South and Udu local government areas, as part of his state-wide consultation with stakeholders on his governorship bid.

Omo-Agege also assured Deltans that he would retain, expand and provide more funding for the Delta State Micro Credit Programme (DSMCP), which has brought happiness to many families.

The guber aspirant reiterated his determination to addressing the challenges of insecurity and unemployment, saying he will initiate policies that would enhance job creation for the teeming unemployed youths across the state.

While acknowledging that Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan has performed exceedingly well in the implementation of his three-point agenda, Omo-Agege enumerated the various completed and ongoing projects embarked upon by the governor across the state.

“Our former governor, Chief James Ibori, laid the foundation; Uduaghan has built on it and I want to take it from there to the next level.”

He urged Deltans to give him the baton of governance, which Uduaghan must handover in May next year.

“Constitutionally, Uduaghan will hand over the baton of governance on May 29, 2015 and I want to be the recipient of the baton.”

He reiterated his commitment to protect Uduaghan legacies by completing projects initiated by the governor but remain uncompleted at the time of handover.

“We will protect Uduaghan’s legacies. We know he cannot complete all projects initiated by his administration. So before I commence my own projects, I will complete those started by Uduaghan because the projects he has embarked upon are those that will add value to the lives of the people.”
