On Sunday the 21st of January 2018, will forever remain a memorable day to the people of Orhomuru, Orogun, home town of the Omo-Agege dynasty, as the Super Senator, Obarisi Barr. Ovie Omo-Agege played host to all APC leaders And Chieftains alongside the party Chairmanship and Councillorship Candidates from across the 25 Local Govt. Areas of Delta State.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
The event Which started at about 1.00pm, at the Country Home of the Super Senator, witnessed a massive influx of people from all walks of life into Orogun, it was a gathering of the “who is who” in Delta State politics.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
The host, Obarisi Barr. Ovie Omo-Agege, the only Senator and highest political office holder of the APC in Delta State, addressed the crowd of over ten thousand party faithful, he abreast them with the purpose of the gathering. According to him, it was not the usual kind of party meetings, but that he invited them to appreciate them for their gallantry and bravery displayed during the just concluded sham of Local Government Elections conducted by Gov. Okowa and his DSIEC on the 6Th of January 2018. He described the election as a show of shame and an aberration to the norms of democratic tendencies. He sent a resounding note of warning to the PDP, as he assured all the party candidates of his unwaivering support for them and promised to ensure that the PDP can not get away with this electoral fraud committed against the APC and the entire people of Delta State.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
The Super Senator encouraged the people to merry, as he tagged the event “Celebration of Victory” Reassuring them of the Federal Government’s efforts and commitment to putting a final end to such electoral malpractices and stealing of the people’s mandates.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
While the celebration was going on, there was wild mumblings and apprehension within the crowd, which intensified over time, as one could audibly hear the people, all mumbling one thing, “where is he, is he not coming?” Raising curiosity of who they could be referring to, when the Senator, their host was right there with them.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
As the mumblings grew wilder, you could virtually see some people beginning to get up from their seats, moving around, asking questions and looking so worried. Then suddenly, there was the sound of sirens wailing all over the place, it was a motorcade of over 50 SUVs, the convoy of he that was yet to be known, the atmosphere was calm and saturated with an aura that sent anxiety across the environment, as the people all stood up to know who it was. Then a black LMO tinted Sequoia pulled forward from within the convoy, which caught the attention of the mammoth crowd, some men in black suits standing by the sides of the SUV, obviously looking like security personnels. Finally the men in black opened the door for whoever was inside to step out. Behold it was a light skinned handsome young man in white radiant native African dress, looking elegant and kingly. And what followed next was a loud chant from the anxious and apprehensive crowd, “The Eagle has landed, The People’s General” and everywhere went rowdy as the crowd thronged him, chanting “The People’s General, our Governor” it became obvious to a few who still doubted his clout and acceptability amongst Deltans, that truly Olorogun Great Ovedje Ogboru, is a living legend.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
It took the over 50 security operatives a very hard time to calm the obviously excited crowd, who were more like the biblical multitude who thronged our Lord Jesus Christ by the riverside, just to touch him and be blessed, that Jesus had to seat in a canoe inside the river to address the multitude to prevent them from thronging him.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
Obviously because of the rowdiness of the crowd, the Master of the Ceremony Mr. Chuks Erhire, did not notice the presence of a gorgeously dressed woman in an apparel like Queen Elizabeth of England, walking majestically beside the People’s General. As soon as the push and thronging calmed down, the Mc of the occasion shouted, “ladies and gentle men, our mother is here with the People’s General, oooohhhh what a great presence, the Lioness of Delta North, our leader, the Enyi kpakpando of Africa” And there arose another problem for the security men to handle, as the entire delegates from the nine LGAs of Delta North stood up in a rousing ovation to receive the great lioness of Delta North, as the women started singing songs of praise in their local Anioma dialect. Those from both Delta North and South who obviously have been hearing her name, but have not had the opportunity to meet her before, seized the opportunity to know her,as they all moved towards the high table to have a good glimpse of the Lioness, the Enyi Kpakpando of Africa, the Leader and Pilar of APC Delta North.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
Addressing the people, the Governor in waiting, The People’s General, Olorogun Great Ovedje Ogboru, reaffirmed the words of the Super Senator, about the readiness commitment of the Buhari’s Administration to put a final stop to election rigging and stealing of the electorates’ mandates. He assured the people of his unwaivering determination to restore the lost glory of Delta State and to bring back smiles to the faces of Deltans. He promised the entire people of Delta, “A New Delta” beginning from May 29Th 2019, when he assumes office as the Governor of Delta State.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
He also presented the Lioness of Delta North, Dr. Mrs Marian Nneamaka Ali. Enyi Kpakpando of Africa, as the next Senator to represent Delta North come 2019, to serve and represent the people of Delta, alongside the Super Senator, in the Red Chamber.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
