The Majority Whip of the Delta State House of Assembly, Hon Bernard Odior, has expressed gratitude to Governor Sheriff Oborevwori for the two Executive bills that have direct impact on Isoko North State Constituency, which he represents in the House.

They include a bill for a law to amend the Delta State University of Science and Technology, Ozoro Establishment Law 2021 to reflect the change of name to Southern Delta University, Ozoro, and a bill for a law to Establish the College of Health Technology, Ovrode, both in Isoko North local government area.

Hon Odior described the two bills as huge welcome development to Isoko Nation, particularly the Isoko North Constituency, and a Christmas gift to him and his constituents.

The lawmaker while contributing to debates on the merits of the two bills at the Hallowed Chamber during their second reading, also paid glowing tribute to the Speaker, Rt Hon Emomotimi Dennis Guwor, for approving the accelerated legislative process accorded the two proposed laws.

He said the Southern Delta University, Ozoro Establishment bill, which was read the first, second, and third times and passed at Wednesday’s plenary due to its unambiguous nature, is to accommodate more faculties and courses in the University, thereby expanding the scope of the institution in line with what obtains in other conventional Universities.

Highlighting the many advantages of the change in nomenclature to the immediate environment of Isoko North, the state, and the nation at large, Hon Odior stated that Governor Oborevwori has again demonstrated his commitment to promoting educational opportunities in the state.

Expressing similar sentiments on the bill for a law to Establish the College of Health Technology, Ovrode, in the Isoko North local government area, the lawmakers explained that the College, when established, would advance the socio-economic status of the host community and its environs.

Hon. Odior commended his colleagues for the quality debates on the merits of the bill and the unanimous support that saw the bill scaling through a second reading on the floor of the House at Wednesday’s plenary session.

He said the proposed law, which was committed to the House Committee on Health for further legislative action by the Speaker to turn in its report by Tuesday next week, is all-encompassing and for growth in the state.

He expressed optimism that the College, when established, will positively impact the State’s health sector as it is meant to produce qualified low and middle-health professionals.

“I must thank His Excellency, Rt H.on Sheriff Oborevwo,ri for the people-oriented bills. Both the existing University and the proposed College of Health Technology are located in my constituency. What a Christmas gift from the Governor to me! I appreciate it so much, so also my constituents,” Hon Odior stated.
