‘Bullet grazed my right ear’ – Senator Omo-Agege recounts assassination attempt


Senator Ovie Omo-Agege representing Delta Central at the National Assembly, has spoken on the reported assassination attempt on him, his wife and some top members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Effurun, Uvwie council area of Delta State.
The attack occurred when he visited the Effurun Market, located along the popular PTI road during the second phase of his constituency empowerment programme in Effurun, Ekpan and Ugberikoko areas of Uvwie.
“But I was lucky because the bullet grazed through my right ear. If I was not lucky, I would have been dead.
“Two bullets were shot at me; one was shot by Ayeye and another bullet was shot at me by Ngozi and also, my brother was shot.

“Also, we have one of my supporters who was almost killed at Ekpan market, all in the presence of police officers who could not even effect any arrest.
“I have taken a first step by filing a report with the Ekpan Police Division. I have equally spoken with the State Commissioner of Police.
“I will take it to the highest level. All I seek is that these undesirable elements who are out to assassinate people are removed from the system.
“And I will go to any extent to see to this. You cannot attempt to kill a sitting Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“I refuse to read any political motivation to this. I’m not in any way saying that there is none.
“For those who were beaten and those who were equally shot at, like me, I can assure them that we will get to the very bottom of it.
“Everybody who is involved in this attempted assassination, we will bring them to face the wrath of the law”, the lawmaker vowed.
