Former Deputy Senate President Ovie Omo‑Agege has declared his support for Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi ahead of the 2027 election while maintaining that he still believes in President Bola Tinubu’s key economic reforms, including fuel subsidy removal and naira floatation. Speaking on ARISE TV, Omo‑Agege said his support for Obi is not a rejection of the reforms but a belief that Nigerians would trust Obi more to implement them effectively.
Key Points:
Omo‑Agege’s endorsement may attract other APC defectors to Obi’s camp.
Voters confused by a candidate who supports Tinubu’s policies but not Tinubu himself.
The endorsement weakens APC’s hold in Delta State but does not repudiate its economic agenda.
Obi gains a former high‑ranking APC figure, adding cross‑party credibility.
Tinubu’s policies remain a point of consensus even among opposition figures.
Omo‑Agege’s position suggests a pragmatic opposition: keeping reform policies while changing leadership for better public trust.
