Be Role Models in Your Various Ministries, Oborevwori charges Commissioners
Governor Sheriff Oborevwori has charged Commissioners in the state to lead by example and be role models in their respective ministry.
Speaking at the inauguration of three new Commissioners, Governor Oborevwori said, “As heads of Ministries, your example is the most powerful leadership tool you possess. You must be role models in punctuality, discipline, hard work, excellence, honesty, transparency, and accountability. People will follow your actions, not your words. Therefore, you must match your words with actions.
“You must maintain an open-door policy in your ministries and be accessible to all and sundry. Let fairness, equity, and justice guide your actions, and you must give every citizen equal opportunity to benefit from our programs and services. You are to shun ethnic politics and divisive tendencies.”
With the court cases behind the administration, Oborevwori reassured Deltans that the government is now poised to focus on advancing Delta State through accelerated infrastructural development, more job opportunities, improved learning climate in schools, and better working conditions for public service workers.”
He charged political appointees to redouble their efforts and contribute to the effective and successful implementation of the MORE agenda. “We must reciprocate the massive mandate given to us by the good people of Delta State with sincerity of purpose, empathy with the people, and improved service delivery in the discharge of our duties”.
The newly sworn-in Commissioners are Mr. Ekemejero Ohwovoriole, SAN, Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice; Dr Ifeanyi Michael Osuoza, Commissioner for Information, and Prince Kelly Kalanama Penawou, Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs.
Responding, the Commissioner for Information, Dr Ifeanyi Osuoza, expressed appreciation to God and to the Governor, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, for finding them worthy to serve as Commissioners.
He assured Deltans of their resolve to put in their best in the service of the state through the MORE agenda.
