#BayelsaDecides2019: Senate Deputy President Congratulates Lyon, Expresses Optimism That APC Will Win More South-South States

The Senate Deputy President, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, has sent congratulatory messages to the Governor-elect of Bayelsa State, David Lyon, on his victory at the Saturday gubernatorial poll.

Omo-Agege also expressed optimism that the All Progressive Congress APC would soon add more states in the south south to its list.

The Special Adviser, Media, and Publicity, to the deputy senate president Yomi Odunuga, disclosed this in a statement on Monday in Abuja.

In the same vein, Omo-Agege also congratulated the APC leadership for a job well done that led to the victory of the party in the poll. Adding that, the victory further corroborated that the APC’s overwhelming success at the last General Election was not a fluke.

He said “With this development and the actualization of the Next Level Agenda of the APC-led administration, it is certain that our party will clinch more states in the South-South geo-political zone in future elections.

“Like I have always said, it is possible for the APC to rule in the South-South beyond Edo. And I have been proven right with the final results from Bayelsa.
