“As we mark this milestone, let us reflect on our journey so far, acknowledging the strides we have made and the challenges we have overcome,” Guwor said.
The Speaker lauded Governor Sheriff Oborevwori as a “focused, vibrant and visionary leader”, noting his efforts in safeguarding lives and property and in driving infrastructural transformation across the state.
He urged all Deltans, at home and abroad, to sustain the spirit of unity and commitment to building a prosperous and peaceful state, adding: “Let us continue to work together, leveraging our diversity and strengths to drive growth and development.”
Guwor prayed for continued peace, prosperity, and happiness for Delta State as it enters a new phase of progress.
