The Delta State Governorship Candidate for the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, has appointed the former Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Elder Godsday Orubebe as the Director- General of his Campaign Organisation.

Omo-Agege, while announcing his choice of Orubebe, who recently left the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), on Wednesday, said the latter would bring on board his wealth of experience, overseeing all area of the campaign for the mandate of Deltans in the 2023 governorship elections.

He said, “Orubebe shall, side by side with me, lead critical engagements and drive consultations, and by his renowned robustness, up the ante for the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. Together with the rest of the team, we shall show PDP the way out of Government House come May 29, 2023.

According to him, Orubebe’s selection “was very straightforward given his knowledge, capacity and pedigree,” as bringing him on board strengthens the campaign organisation, in grassroots and all round planning.

Continuing, Omo-Agege said, “when news of Elder Godsday Orubebe’s resignation from the PDP filtered in, June, our campaign organisation applauded him for toeing the path of progress and enjoined him to pitch tent with progressives in the APC, and help in the task of taking over Government House come 2023.

“I am proud to announce that he heeded that call and joined our party, the APC, in his ward at Burutu Local Government Area.”
