Read More2027 Senate: Emerhor Shouldn’t Cast The Nets Before Getting To The River!
By Ufuoma Egbe, As conversations around the 2027 Delta Central senatorial race gather momentum, the renewed push to project Olorogun O’tega Emerhor as a viable contender raises more questions than it answers.

Power, in Urhoboland, is not surrendered on sentiment but fought for on the turf of democratic choice. Consensus, however noble in theory, has plainly failed here.…
