Obidients, who are followers of the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi have rejected the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate of Delta State, Ovie Omo-Agege’s plea for a coalition.
Omo-Agege made the plea when he visited Asaba and Oshimili South Local Government Area, where Obi scored the highest votes of over 40,000.
He asked teeming supporters to vote for APC to beat the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate.

Omo-Agege, with his supporters and loyalists who met with Obi supporters, earnestly begged them to support him to end PDP’s age-long ineptitude in the state.
He said:
“We have succeeded in the first leg during the presidential election. Let us come together and chase away our common enemy. Let us together and reject the afflictions of PDP. Vote me for pensioners to be paid their gratuities, affordable school fees will be paid at universities and constant electricity will be possible.
“Convert your votes in the Labour Party to Omo-Agege. I know what Obidients want; I will run a participatory government with you. Finish the good work you have started. The wounded lion has started to run helter-skelter and begging for votes. Don’t listen to them.
“We sympathise with you on how Okowa deprived you of venues. He has done it to Obi himself. So, we are not surprised. Okowa stole Reps and Senate seats in Delta North, but when l come as governor, we shall reclaim them for Obidients. Obidients and APC have one thing in common.
“To get this, we want a governor to achieve this. I can’t do it alone; l need your help. When l emerge as governor, you are the ones that emerged. We know what we want. Come to me, tell me what you want me to do for you.
“We shall bring you into government, some will serve in the government. I will reclaim seats, Reps, Senate, that Okowa stole from Obidients.”
Also, the APC chairman in the state, Chief Omeni Sobotie, had said they had to come together to pursue Okowa.
Sobotie had said:
“We chased Okowa away as vice president; we don’t want his affliction to come to Delta again. We want a new Delta of job opportunities, where companies will come to set up job opportunities.”
Obidients however turned down the demand of APC and Omo-Agege to join forces with the Labour Party to win the Delta State Governor election.

“Obidients don’t listen to this man called Omoagege, vote APC and PDP out in Delta state. Since they said that you have no structure, build structure for Peter Obi and labour party with your vote. When you vote, make sure you have the copies of the results in your phones and force the PO to transmit the photo of the results by uploading it in the INEC BVAS.”
