Former Deputy President of the Senate Ovie Omo-Agege formally joins the National Democratic Congress (NDC), according to reports from Nigeria. The outlets say he completes the move after resigning from the All Progressives Congress (APC), with one report noting that the resignation happened about six days before his NDC announcement. Following his defection, Omo-Agege declares that he intends to contest for the Delta Central Senatorial seat in the 2027 elections. The reports describe the development as a party switch from APC to NDC and frame it around his stated electoral ambitions in Delta Central. No additional details are provided in the cited summaries about his specific campaign plans, reasons for leaving the APC, or whether NDC has formally adopted him as its candidate. Overall, the sources agree that the key points are his official entry into the NDC, the timing of his departure from the APC shortly before the announcement, and his intention to run for the Delta Central seat in 2027.
