Director General, Delta State Orientation and Communications Bureau, Dr Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe has said that the Vanguard Newspapers’s “Governor of the year In Good Governance Award” bestowed on the Governor of Delta State, Dr (Elder) Sheriff Oborevwori, is a clear testament to the rapid socioeconomic and infrastructure development in all sectors of the state economy in less than two years in office, and counting.
Dr Oghenesivbe’s assertion was contained in a congratulatory message made available to newsmen on Saturday in Asaba, wherein he noted that the unprecedented speed of development and economic advancement recorded in the state could not have been possible, but for the deliberate political willpower, visionary leadership and prudent management of state resources by governor Oborevwori.
The Bureau Chief listed some of the key achievements of the governor to include; the three mega flyovers and pedestrian bridges at DSC roundabout, PTI junction, Enerhen junction, as well as the fast tracking of the reconstruction and dualization of Ughelli-Asaba highway linking Delta North, Delta South and Delta Central Senatorial Districts to the Eastern parts of Nigeria.
He also commended governor Oborevwori over the ongoing construction of several road projects in urban, rural and riverine communities, as well as for the state huge investments in assisting Small and medium scale business, youth and women empowerment and human capacity development across the three Senatorial Districts.
He urged Deltans to continue to support the governor unconditionally in his genuine determination to make Delta the largest economy in Nigeria before the end of his tenure on May 29, 2031, by the grace of God.
Oghenesivbe further asserted that the governor Oborevwori’s sound economic remodelling policies and fiscal discipline had greatly contributed to the meaningful development, enhanced peace and security enjoyed in all parts of the state, among other giant strides in the past 22 months.
“The management and staff of the Delta State Orientation and Communications Bureau is proud of the numerous achievements of our amiable visionary leader and governor of Delta State, Dr (Elder) Sheriff Oborevwori.
“The Vanguard Newspapers Award recognizing him as the “Best Governor in Good Governance in Nigeria” is heartwarming, timely and well deserved. It’s another testament to the fact that governor Oborevwori has led us well, and remain focused on Advancing Delta State beyond 2027.
