Umeh is a community known for fish and plantain farming in Isoko South Local Government Area of Delta State.

The APC senatorial candidate drove through the road amid accolades from the people of Umeh particularly market women whom now have access road to transport their goods to neighbouring city markets.

In his remark, the Umeh traditional ruler told Uduaghan that, “You are like a king in Umeh. We call you the Elo (light) of Umeh community. You gave us road that brought along other development. Your relationship with our community is why I am respected among other traditional rulers.

“No single Umeh son or daughter will vote for the other candidate. All our votes are for you. Today I will upgrade you to the “Ovie Elo” of Umeh (king of light). You’re already in the senate.”

A photograph connoting love and unity was presented to him as well as all kinds of farm produce in commemoration of his visit.
