GOVERNOR OKOWA GRIEVES WITH OMO-AGEGE’S FAMILY OVER EX-CJ'S DEATH

Justice Omo-Agege
The Governor of Delta State, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa has commiserated with the family of Omo-Agege of Orhomuru-Orogun in Ughelli North Local Government Area over the death of their patriarch, Hon. Chief Justice James Omo-Agege, the second Chief Judge of Delta State. 
Okowa, in a condolence message by his Chief Press Secretary, Charles Aniagwu, described late Justice Omo-Agege as a fearless judge who as Chairman of the Bendel State Armed Robbery & Firearms Tribunal found the dreaded Anini and his gang members guilty of conspiracy and armed robbery and sentenced them to death by firing squad.
The governor said that the Late Chief Judge would be missed by all whose lives he had touched in many ways in his "very fulfilled and achievements-laden life.”
"On behalf of the government and people of Delta, I mourn the exit of a legend, a legal titan, former Chief Judge of Delta State, and Pioneer Chairman of the Delta State Independent Electoral Commission, (DSIEC), Hon. Chief Justice James Omo-Agege.
"Justice Omoagege's life-long dedication and indefatigable commitment to serving the people of the state will be missed.
The governor joined the Omo-Agege’s family, friends, associates, especially the Senator Representing Delta Central Senatorial District, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege in mourning the late Octogenarian, former Chief Judge of the State, assuring the family that their late patriarch would always be celebrated.
"He will be honoured by his proud countrymen and women for his unblemished service and exemplary career which had inspired others to take up a career in the judiciary.”

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove...
