2027 AND BEYOND, IS OWO PLAYING POLITICS OF SELF-DIMINISHING?
2027 AND BEYOND, IS OWO PLAYING POLITICS OF SELF-DIMINISHING? The recent story about a supposed battle between Owo and Ose for the federal constituency seat, though faintly covered and poorly presented, appears to be a contrived and hypocritical narrative, likely sponsored by certain vested interests.
