To recast this organic growth as “panic” within the ranks of the APC is not only misleading; it is an insult to the intelligence of Urhobo people who can distinguish propaganda from performance.…

Admin

By Apst. P. O. Edu., Esq.   The argument from Ovie Omo-Agege’s camp that Sen. Ede Dafinone should be denied reelection simply because he shares the same federal constituency as the sitting governor is political rhetoric, not constitutional logic.   Under Nigeria’s democratic framework, the offices of governor and senator are distinct, independently elected, and serve different functions. The electorate of Delta Central sent Distinguished Sen. Ede Dafinone to the National Assembly based on his capacity to represent their interests at the federal level — not to balance geography within…
