The election of the Deputy Senate President and the senator representing Delta Central Senatorial district, Ovie Omo-Agege has been upheld by the Delta State National Assembly election petition tribunal sitting in Asaba, the state capital.
The candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the 2019 general elections for the senatorial district, Evelyn Oboro had filed a petition challenging the victory of Omo-Agege, the All Progressives Congress candidate.
In a unanimous judgement delivered on Saturday, the panel dismissed Oboro’s petition on the ground that the petition lacked merit and the petitioner could not prove her case beyond reasonable doubt.
