Read Time:1 Minute, 42 Second

The All Progressives Congress (APC), has denied that Senator Ovie-Omo Agege, who was running for governor of Delta State, had been expelled from the party.

Felix Morka, the APC’s national publicity secretary, told newsmen that the party does not acknowledge the factional executive who made the announcement about Omo-Agege’s alleged expulsion from the party in Delta State.

The Deputy President of the Senate was allegedly expelled from the APC in Delta State for claimed anti-party activities and other unspecified offenses, according to an online story from a national daily on Monday.

The story asserted that a letter dated March 31, 2023, from the Delta APC announced Omo-Agage’s expulsion.

According to the report, the executive committee of the Orogun ward and Ughelli North Local Government chapter unanimously resolved and adopted the expulsion of Omo-Agege as a party member in the expulsion letter signed by the chairman, Ulebor Isaac, on behalf of the State Executive Committee of the Delta APC, and secretary, Inana Michael, along with 23 other party members.

The letter reads, “The State Executive Committee of all Progressive Congress Delta State in a meeting held on the 31st March, 2023 at the State Secretariat, Asaba, after due deliberation of the Notice of Resolution of Expulsion of Senator Ovie Omo-Agege as a member of the party by the executive committee of the Orogun ward and Ughelli North local government chapter dated 20th March, 2023.

“And in accordance to the provision of Article 21.2 (1)(II)(VII) 21.3 and 21.5(g) of the constitution 2022 (as amended) we unanimously resolved and adopted the expulsion of Senator Ovie Omo Agege as a member of the party.

The letter further reads, “Consequently Senator Ovie Omo-Agege hereby stands expelled as a member of the party with immediate effect for various offences committed and acts of anti-party activities and gross misconduct that has brought shame and ridicule to the image of the party in the state which affected the party in the just concluded elections.”
