They also noted that Ochei’s journey in public service had always been defined by courage, resilience, competence, and results.
“Against the odds, he earned the confidence of the people and delivered leadership that ensured Aniocha North benefited from over a decade of impactful representation.
“As the 2027 campaign season begins, ‘Team Ochei’ is confident that where records, antecedents, competence, and capacity remain the standards for leadership, Victor Ochei remains one of the strongest and most acceptable choices to represent Delta North in the Senate.
