The governorship ambition of the Delta State House of Assembly Speaker, Victor Ochei, hit a violent snag earlier today (Friday) as an explosion went off during a political meeting he was presiding over at Obomkpa, Aniocha North local government area. The explosion, suspected to be a bomb blast, left two persons with severe injuries. A source identified one of the injured as a female personal assistant to Bishop Ken Ebolum of Dominion Christian Center, Asaba. He added that the two victims were rushed to the Delta State Teaching Hospital, Oghara, for treatment.

Several eyewitness sources said that chaos broke out as soon as the suspected bombs exploded, with the speaker and other scampering for safety. One of the sources disclosed that the speaker had arrived in Obomkpa to inaugurate his political group, “Otumowane,” in preparation for the 2015 general elections. His close associates have revealed that he has indicated an interest in running for the governorship.
