Former Deputy President of the Senate, Ovie Omo-Agege, has resigned from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a statement issued by his Media Adviser, Sunday Areh, Senator Omo-Agege said his decision followed consultations with his political associates and supporters, as well as recent developments within the party in Delta State.
The former lawmaker stated that his political aspirations and the interests of Delta Central are better pursued outside the APC, stressing that he could no longer remain in a party where he was unable to effectively advance the interests of his people.
He, however, appreciated the All Progressives Congress for the opportunity to serve as Deputy President of the 9th Senate and wished the party well, while reaffirming his commitment to the development of Delta Central, Delta State and the nation.
