Ahead of the one-year celebration of Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori’s assumption of office as Governor of Delta State, come May 29th, this year, the Speaker of the State Assembly, Rt. Hon. Emomotimi Guwor is upbeat that Deltans have a plethora of reasons to celebrate.

Speaking with journalists in his office recently, Rt. Hon. Guwor is positive that the State Governor, has, within the past one year, achieved remarkable socio-economic milestones as encapsulated in his M.O.R.E agenda initiative, which, according to him, is worthy of celebration.

He listed some of the Governor’s achievements to include; “Massive infrastructural developments, Youth empowerment, enhanced relative peace and security, accelerated road network” among others.

On peace and security, although the speaker noted that within the period under review, there were pockets of challenges, particularly the Okuama community saga, herdsmen attacks, among others, Rt. Hon. Guwor maintained that the Governor, through his proactive dispositions is already bringing the challenge under control.

On the Okuama security challenge, the Speaker noted that the Peace talk between the State government, the Nigerian Military and the affected community (ties) have been yielding the desired result as normalcy, according to him, is already returning to the troubled community.

On the incessant herdsmen attacks across the State, the Speaker affirmed that the State House of Assembly through its legislative compliance committee is working in collaboration with the Executive to ensure that the Delta State Anti-open grazing law is obeyed by the latter, stressing that the committee has since given a marching order to the various local government councils in the State to constitute enforcement committee within their council areas.

He said, “For the past year, it is obvious that the State Governor has achieved a lot for Deltans. In terms of Peace and Security which is one of his cardinal focuses, you will agree with me that the State Governor is doing very well in this regard, particularly within the Warri axis.

“You are aware that before now, nightlife in the Warri axis has been on its lowest ebbs because of insecurity. But, at present the story has changed as nightlife is already returning to the area.

“This, no doubting the fact is an attestation that the State Governor is doing very well in terms of security of life and property

“However, it is obvious that in every situation, there are bound to be some challenges. How you manage those situations is what matters. Recently, we had the Okuama issue. That, no doubt, is a security issue where 17 soldiers were killed.

“The entire Okuama community was raised down as a result of that, but I can assure you that the State Governor is already working towards making sure that the people of Okuama return to their ancestral homes.

“A relief and relocation committee has been set up as there is a manhunt on the perpetrators of that dastardly act. That is to tell you how responsive the Governor is in terms of security. He has been working assiduously to ensure that normalcy returns to the troubled community.

“Generally, in all parts of Delta, the Governor is doing his best. Recently, there were some security challenges within the State capital, but I can also tell you that he has since nipped that in the bud. That is to tell you the level of work the Governor has been doing to ensure that the State is peaceful both for investors and, indeed, Deltans” Guwor said.

Speaking further, the Speaker commended the State Governor for his poise in giving Warri, the commercial nerve centre of the State some facelifts.

He noted that the State Governor, within the period under review, has demonstrated an uncommon feat by engaging a reputable company, Julius Berger for the construction of bridges in the Warri area of the State.

The N78 Billion contract, according to Rt. Hon. Guwor is yet another testament to the Governor’s poise at ensuring lasting infrastructural legacies for the state.
