The Urhobo Progress Union (UPU) has urged the Senate to discontinue its appeal against the victory of the senator representing Delta Central Senatorial District, Obarisi Ovie Omo-Agege, at the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court.

A statement by President-General of UPU, Olorogun Moses Taiga, congratulated Omo-Agege on his victory in the suit he instituted challenging his suspension, saying it was not only a victory for the senator alone, but also the entire Urhobo Nation.

Taiga said the Urhobo Nation was being denied representation at the upper chamber and urged the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki and the senate leadership to immediately recall Omo-Agege to take his rightful place in the Senate.The Senate had suspended Senator Omo-Agege for 90 legislative days, an action the court described as unconstitutional.
