Deputy Senate President, Ovie Omo-Agege, says Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa is a “replica of Judas Iscariot today” who betrayed Southern Nigeria by accepting to be the running mate to the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
Omo-Agege said this on Saturday in Warri during the flag-off of the APC governorship campaign in Delta, saying a southerner should succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.
Omo-Agege, who is the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta, described as an “ill-fated adventure” the ambition of Okowa to be Nigeria’s Vice-President in May 2023.
Accrding to him, the two-term Delta State governor “should step down immediately from the ticket of Atiku Abubakar”.
