The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has approved waiver for former Deputy Senate President, Ovie Omo-Agege to contest the Delta Central Senatorial seat in the 2027 general elections.
NDC also approved waiver for former Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Victor Ochei, to contest the Delta North Senatorial seats.
Both Ochei and Omo-Agege had defected from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to the NDC.
This is contained in a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Osa Director.
NDC said the waivers were granted in recognition of their leadership experience, political influence and commitment to democratic governance and service to the people.
The party expressed confidence that both politicians possessed the capacity and grassroots support required to provide effective representation for the people of Delta Central and Delta North Senatorial Districts.
The NDC also assured the new entrants of a credible, inclusive and people-oriented platform to pursue their political aspirations and contribute to national development.
