Rather than receiving applause, the people condemned Ogor for the act. They describing it as an outdated means of youth empowerment.
A resident of Ozoro community, Joel Okeghene, said, “This is 2020, Ogor is distributing motorcycles to our youths as empowerment. This should no longer be a constituency project. I have known Ogor for decades, who is really advising him and for how long shall we continue to applaud all these.”
A PDP chieftain and former senatorial aspirant in the area expressed disappointment over Ogor’s continued usage of motorcycles as constituency project to empower youths of Isoko.
He said, “For over two decades now in the National Assembly, Hon. Ogor is still distributing motorcycles to our youths as a constituency project. He should be ashamed of himself.

Also condemning the yearly distribution of motorcycles by the federal lawmaker, other constituents who gave their names as Oghenekome Victor, Oke Agbamu, Aghogho Timothy, Raphael Ubidi among others, described Ogor as a “perpetual failure”, who is good at amassing the people’s common resources to his own advantage.
