The Urhobo people must realize that Omo-Agege has never worked for their interest. It has always been about what he stands to gain. He is a trader and dealer who will trade Urhobo away at the slightest opportunity. Did he not declare war in Orogun during the 2007 election working against Urhobo’s interest just because he was promised a big office?
