Behind every great leader is a movement and behind Okanga is a family of fire-hearted men and youths known proudly as the Okanga Brothers.
They are not just followers. They are not just supporters. They are believers: men who have seen in Chief Dr. Philip Agbese a leader worth standing with, fighting for, and building alongside.
Across Ado, Okpokwu, and Ogbadibo, the Okanga Brothers have become a symbol of loyalty, unity, and dedication. Young men who have found purpose in service. Elders who have found hope in Okanga’s vision. Farmers, students, artisans, professionals all united by one thing: unshakable belief in a man who has never failed his people.
They are the first to arrive at community events and the last to leave.
They are the ones rallying support at the grassroots not for money, but for mission.
They don’t serve for titles. They serve because they see themselves in Okanga and Okanga sees himself in them.
The Okanga Brothers are more than a political network, they are a brotherhood of purpose. Through thick and thin, they’ve walked beside Okanga, not only during campaigns, but also during moments of sorrow, insecurity, rebuilding, and growth. They are there when communities need to be mobilized. They are there when bridges need to be built, both literal and social.
And Okanga? He doesn’t take them for granted. He knows each face, each name, and each story. To him, they are not political tools, they are family.
He empowers them with opportunities. He listens to them. He lifts them. Because he knows that real leadership is not about climbing up alone, it’s about taking your people with you.
