Speaking directly to Omo-Agege, she added, “We will win Delta, and we will stand by you if you decide to run again because you are the best person to lead APC to victory. If we must win the next election, we must stand together. A house divided against itself cannot stand.”
Senator Omo-Agege assured party leaders and members that the mistakes of the last election would be corrected and promised to mend fences to build a stronger and more united front ahead of 2027.
“The mistakes we made in the last election will be corrected, and we will not allow them to cheat us again. You gave everything you had, you made sacrifices, and yet, despite our efforts, we did not succeed.
“I recognize your sacrifices. Some of you endured hardships, even violence, yet you remained committed. Your dedication means everything to me, and that is why I came here todayto speak directly with the grassroots, the people who made everything happen,” he said.

Acknowledging the concerns raised by party members, Omo-Agege urged for unity and dialogue among all APC members in Delta, including those with differing opinions.
“Even within families, there are disagreements husbands and wives argue, siblings quarrel but in the end, they reconcile. Politics is no different. Challenges will arise, but what matters is that we acknowledge we are all members of the same political party.”
“I assure you, especially our leaders, that any differences we have will be resolved. We have done it before, and we will do it again. Those who have followed our politics know this to be true. After the last congresses in 2022, we found a way forward, and we will do so again,” he said.
