‘Omo-Agege has achieved much in Senate’

By Anne Agbi

A group, the Organisation for Ndokwa Unity (ONU) aka Ndokwa Unite, has congratulated Deputy Senate President Ovie Omo-Agege on his 58th birthday.

It described the lawmaker’s achievements at the Red Chamber as legendary.

The body, in an August 2 statement issued in Asaba and signed by the trio of the Convener, Chairman and Secretary; Onotu Henry Okechukwu, Steve Uwe and Dr Bonnyface Opia, said Sen. Omo-Agege had lived up to the expectations of the good people of Delta State, particularly his Delta Central Senatorial District “and for this God is happy with him.”

The group prayed that he would live long and be prosperous.

Born on August 3, 1963, the lawmaker turns 58 today.

The body said: “On behalf of the people of Ndokwa nation, we wish our amiable Senator Omo-Agege a long and prosperous life in the land of the living and in good health.

“The voice of the people is the voice of God. This is why we have chosen his birthday at 58 to join the entire world to celebrate this great man whom God has blessed with a sense of purposeful and visionary leadership. What else do we ask from God for a man who in one of his giant strides is working assiduously to bring a Federal University of Agriculture and Technology to Ndokwa land, other than ask God to protect and give him a glorious long life?

“What do we ask from God for a man who has taken it upon himself to work round the clock to lit up the entire Ndokwa land and its environs from the Okpai gas plant in his bid to end an age-long darkness in our land, other than ask God to guide, guard and lead him into success, while uplifting him to a greater height in life? These we ask for because he earns the prayers of the masses of Ndokwa people and the entire citizens of Nigeria.”

The body said Omo-Agege, the ‘Obarisi’ of Urhobo-land, is sent by God to uplift lives and integrate Ndokwa nation with the Nigerian state.

Uwe said Ndokwa Unite stands in-between the government and the people of Ndokwa land.

Ndokwa, he noted, can never be compromised under any guise, adding that whoever stands-in for the interest of “our nation anywhere in the world is automatically a member of the organisation. Therefore, on this premise, Omo-Agege is a bona-fide member of our group because he has shown enough proof that he loves Ndokwa nation.”
