In a letter to his Ward 10 chairman in Akoko-Edo local government area dated September 2nd 2024, Agbaje complained of alienation and alleged sidelining in the scheme of the things in the party and his Ward 10.
Agbaje was the only APC lawmaker in the state house of Assembly besides the 14 that were not inaugurated in 2019 that did not defect with Governor Godwin Obaseki from the APC to the Peoples Democratic Party ,PDP, ahead of the 2020 governorship election and it was gathered that from that time till his tenure ended, he was denied all entitlements as a lawmaker except his monthly salary.
It was learnt that he was not also consulted when the APC Governorship Campaign was being constituted as members who were still in the PDP in his ward were made members of the council without consulting him.
