He reiterated his stand while reacting to the incident that happened on Thursday during his governorship campaign in Asaba,
He said, “I will never regret my action to shut down the 8th Senate to stop the impeachment of President Buhari.
“Then, I was the de facto chairman of the Electoral Act, and after concluding our report, Saraki and his cohorts decided to change what we passed and sent to the House of Representatives for concurrent consideration just because they wanted to impeach President Buhari.
“Our group called the parliamentary group for support of Buhari in the Senate, then made efforts to stop them, and I showed up unexpectedly and shut down the sitting to stop the impeachment of President Buhari. I’m not regretting the role I played.” H4e added.
Senator Omo-Agege, who was accused of masterminding the invasion of the Senate chamber, had allegedly arrived at the National Assembly premises with thugs believed to be working for him on that day.
Speaking on the governance of the state, Omo-Agege told Deltans make an objective assessment of every village, town, city, and local government area in Delta State, including the reverie areas to agree to the conclusion that the state is lagging behind in every index of socio-economic development and economic prosperity.
He claimed that the Senator Ifeanyi Okowa led administration alone has swallowed up well over N2.8trn in seven years..
“There is poverty and profound infrastructural dilapidation from Asaba to Warri and environs, Ughelli to Udu, Sapele to Effurun, Koko to Oghara, Agbor to Ukwani, Ndokwa to Abraka, and other areas of the state.” He said
