The Delta State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has accused former Deputy Senate President, Ovie Omo-Agege, of being behind suspended Central Bank Governor, Godwin Emefiele’s participation in the APC presidential primary to scuttle Asiwaju Bola Tinubu’s ambition.
The claim was disclosed in a letter written to the President on Monday. The letter, which was made available to newsmen, was signed by state APC Secretary, Inana Michael; Delta North Chairman, Tom Onah; South Chairman, Nelson Ogharama, and Central Chairman, Michael Orunefe. The Delta APC leaders alleged that on the night of the APC convention,
Omo-Agege instructed Delta delegates to vote against Tinubu who he alleged stood no chance against their anointed candidate.
According to them, virtually every delegate was aware of Omo-Agege’s stance. Furthermore, the Delta APC leaders alleged that ahead of the general elections, Omo-Agege supported the opposition, Labour Party rather than the APC.
