Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori has assigned portfolios to newly sworn in Commissioners.
The 26 Commissioners who were on Tuesday, August 22, 2023, inaugurated as members of the State Executive Council were advised by the governor to ensure fairness, equity and justice to guide their actions for effective service delivery.
He charged the newly sworn-in Commissioners to be humble in the discharge of their duties, adding that “being a Commissioner does not make you superior to others. So, you must shun pride and arrogance”.
He said the appointment was simply a call to higher responsibility and that they must justify the confidence that has been reposed in them with good judgment, tenacity of purpose, compassion, and unwavering commitment to the development of the state and the welfare of the people.
According to governor Oberevwori, “the M.O.R.E agenda of this administration is designed to ADVANCE Delta through inclusive and sustainable economic growth and private sector job creation, strengthening the human capital, building an enabling infrastructure, and improving governance and accountability systems for improved service delivery”.
“The successful implementation of these programmes calls for drive, focus, innovation, fiscal discipline, and judicious allocation of resources on your part”.
“A lot is expected from this administration in the light of the massive support we received from the electorate in the general elections. Hence, you must roll up your sleeves and get to work immediately because there is no time to waste”.
