Easter: Omo-Agege urges Deltans to remain calm, hopeful on guber poll

The Deputy Senate President, Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege, has urged the people of Delta State to remain hopeful over the just-concluded governorship election in the state, saying the “irregularities that thwarted the people’s will” be unraveled soon.

Omo-Agege, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the March 18 gubernatorial election, urged the people of Delta State to celebrate Easter under an atmosphere of calm and positive expectations.

He said this via his Easter message issued on Friday, April 7, by his Chief Press Secretary, Sunny Areh.

The senator stated: “As Christendom celebrates the most important event in the salvation of mankind – the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ – we are reminded of the route taken to secure our salvation.

“When our Saviour was on His earthly assignment, Christ’s traducers sought to scuttle his mission not knowing that by their actions, they had become part of the divine road map. At the end of it all, the best efforts of the Redeemer’s traducers fitted into the divine plan to make the salvation of the world not only accomplished but also wholesome.

“There is a lot of lessons to be drawn from this given the disappointment that followed the March 18, 2023, gubernatorial election in Delta State.

“As you celebrate the Easter, I urge everyone to remain calm and positive. Your well-being and the future of your children that you invested by voting for me will surely be realised.

“As the Resurrection completed the divine work of salvation, my prayer is that the Almighty who has unquestionable control over our lives will continue to guide, protect and uphold you in all your endeavours.”
