The Delta Collective Assembly (DCA) has adopted the candidacy of the Chief of Staff to Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, Rt. Hon. Ovie Festus Agas, as the candidate to be supported for the 2023 governorship seat in Delta State.
This was as a result of the report of the DCA assessment committee presented by its Chairman, Chief Alfred Onyenwosa, to the General Assembly of the group in accordance with the terms of reference given to the committee.
The motion for the adoption of the former lawmaker who served as Secretary to the Delta State Government between 2015 and 2019, as the candidate to be supported by DCA for the PDP Guber elections in 2023 was moved by Hon. Emmanuel Udora from Oshimili South, while stating that the assessment committee did a detailed work that was very transparent, scientific and credible before settling for Agas.
“Being the aspirant that got the highest scores among the assessed, I hereby move that Rt. Hon. Ovie Festus Agas should be adopted as DCA candidate for 2023 Delta State Governorship Elections,” Udora stated.
His motion for the adoption of Rt Hon Festus Ovie Agas was seconded by Hon. (Dr) J. E. Orogun, while the motion for the acceptance of the report of the DCA Guber Assessment Committee, submitted to the General Assembly of the DCA was moved by Hon Emeka Joseph Atagbuzia from Oshimili South Local Government Area (LGA) and seconded by Mr Anderson Ebiuiwhe, Uvwie LGA Coordinator.
