Johnny, former Chairman of Egbema Gbaramatu Communities Development Foundation, said, ” I sacrificed my senate ambition to enable me fully support and work for APC’s victory in 2023. APC winning the coming governorship general elections and Senator Ovie Omo-Agege becoming next Governor of Delta State in 2023, is a project more important than my Senatorial ambition”.

” I am very confident that 2023 is for APC to chase PDP out of Government House, Asaba. Luckily, the Delt State APC is presenting a formidable, most qualified, competent and acceptable governorship candidate, Senator Omo-Agege. We have a popular Governorship candidate, and we have the electorates on our side. We shall win the governorship election”.

Johnny, a former APC senatorial aspirant, Delta South, urged APC family in Delta State to remain strong and united, noting that the votes must count in 2023 in favour of APC and Omo-Agege.
