“When he held sway as governor of Delta from 1999 to 2007, Ibori demonstrated huge courage in the pursuit for a better deal for the people of the state and Niger Delta region in general through famous Resource Control which he championed leading to the approval of the 13% Derivation Fund for the region and later the establishment of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) as well as development agencies,” Ofobrukueta recalled.

The Ethiope East Council boss noted that Chief Ibori deserves all the accolades as a worthy leader who committed himself to engender peace and harmonious relationship amongst the various ethnic groups in the state.

Ofobrukueta, a pharmacist noted that: “The former governor (Ibori) took over the mantle of leadership of Delta at a time the infamous Warri crisis was at its peak, yet he was able to navigate the troubled waters to bring to an end the feud among the warring ethnic groups.

“Ibori remains a pathfinder, a dogged fighter and goal-getter and one who has continued to demonstrate a strong desire for the indivisibility of Delta State.”
