The Integrity Group of Delta State and the MORE ambassadors, have felicitated with the founding fathers, stakeholders, religion and political leaders as well as all Deltans on the occasion of the 32nd anniversary of creation of Delta State.
The Convener of Integrity Group, Dr. Oke Idawene in a press release expressed gratitude to the former Military President, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, for the creation of the State 32 years ago.
He felicitated with the state governor, Rt. Hon. Sherriff Oborevwori and all his appointees for witnessing Delta state at 32 even as he prayed that God who brought them together in love will continue to strengthen them to achieve greater unity and prosperity as a state under his Divine Grace.
The statement reads, “We appreciate the peace, unity and progress in our state since its creation despite the obvious diversity in culture, language and political affiliations; deriving from the brotherly love and big-heartedness of Deltans, the vision of our founding fathers and commitment of successive leaders in managing the affairs of the state.
The group applauded Governor Oborevwori for fostering greater love, unity and progress amongst the various ethnic nationalities in the State especially through his administration’s MORE Agenda, which have brought unprecedented hopes across the state in the last two months.
“We celebrate the efforts of the Governor and other distinguished sons and daughters of Delta state for their commitment and patriotic efforts in projecting our state in good light in all areas of human endeavour both at the national and international arena. Since its creation 32 years ago, Delta state has continued to produce great minds who excel with tremendous accomplishments in business, politics, medicine, economy, science and technology, the arts, music, hospitality among others.
The Integrity Group is happy to celebrate with Deltans just as the Convener appealed to all stakeholders at home and in the diaspora to continue in their patriotic spirit and in supporting governor Oborevwori and other leaders at various levels so that the state can achieve its full potentials in line with the visions of the founding fathers.
