In his reaction to the victory at the poll, Oluomo attributed his victory in the election to God, and the good people of Ifo, noting that it was a well-fought battle.

Assuring the electorate of more dividends of democracy as the victory is a call to do more, Oluomo urged his fellow contenders to put aside, their political differences and join hands with him, in developing the constituency, local government, and the state, to a desirable position.
