N3.5 Trillion Delta State Revenue Can’t Be Traced – Omo-Agege

Deputy Senate President and Delta APC governorship candidate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege,  has said that there is nothing that looks like the N3.5 trillion naira revenue that Governor Ifeanyi Okowa has received from various sources in the past seven and half years.

Senator Omo-Agege made the remark while continuing his ward to ward campaign at Ukwuani local government area , Tuesday, December 6. He said that no state in the history of Nigeria has received the type of resources of Delta has received, but the state remains one of the least developed in the country.

Senator Omo-Agege warned the Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, and People’s Democratic Party, PDP, gubernatorial candidate, Sheriff Oborevwori, of the legal consequences of approving and authorizing loans to the governor that are later misappropriated.

He said a critical assessment of infrastructure across Delta State ridicules the sobriquet of “road master” that Okowa once gave himself, as there is practically nothing on ground to account for the over 3.5 trillion receipts by his administration.

“Today, the people and ancestors of Ukwani have rejected Okowa. Okowa is a weak foundation who should not even bring a successor not to mention that unfortunate choice of his. We are here to make a solemn pledge to get rid of Okowa and everything that he represents at the polls. We are here to build a new Delta of true prosperity; a secure society that thrives on equitable planning and appropriation of resources,” Omo-Agege said besides his claim that the N3.5 trillion revenue received by the Okowa Government in Delta State could not be traced.

Earlier, Senator Omo-Agege had commissioned various federal government intervention projects executed at his alma mater, St George’s College, Obinomba,  during which he also awarded scholarship to an SS3 student, Miss Christabel Onomoin, up to university level.

The projects included a 100 bed capacity hostel for boys and girls each, a two floor classroom block, an E-library and administrative building.
