In the annals of political history, the axiom that "a prophet is not honored in his hometown" often rings true. However, the homecoming of Obarisi, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, CFR, the former Deputy President of the Senate, to Ughelli in Delta State, defied this notion with resounding acclaim and jubilation.

Despite the short notice of his arrival, the entire state, particularly the Delta Central Senatorial District, reverberated with the rhythmic beats of drums, heralding the return of one of its illustrious sons. This historic event, reminiscent of a triumphant entry, marked Omo-Agege's first homecoming since the last election, underscoring its significance.

As the senator's convoy traversed the streets, the atmosphere was electrifying, with residents lining the thoroughfares, exuding boundless joy and excitement. Children on holiday reveled in the spectacle of assorted cars and distinguished guests, while local traders seized the opportunity to capitalize on the influx of visitors, bustling with brisk business activity.

The carnival-like reception extended beyond the confines of the reception ground, engulfing the entire community in a festive fervor, punctuated by the pulsating rhythms of music emanating from colossal speakers. Despite the disruption of the rustic tranquility by vehicular and human traffic, security personnel maintained order, ensuring a seamless celebration.

Senator Nwaoboshi encapsulated the sentiments of the gathering, expressing gratitude for the overwhelming display of solidarity and attributing the electoral success of the APC in the 2023 elections to the strategic leadership of Ovie Omo-Agege. His remarks underscored the widespread admiration and confidence in Omo-Agege's astuteness and leadership acumen.

The homecoming celebration in honour of Ovie Omo-Agege epitomized a convergence of unity, appreciation, and reverence for a revered statesman. It served as a testament to his indelible imprint on the political landscape and reaffirmed the adage that, in certain instances, a prophet can indeed find honour in his hometown.
