Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has congratulated his Bayelsa State counterpart, Governor Douye Diri and his Deputy, Lawrence Ewhrudjakpor, on their inauguration for a second term in office.
Governor Oborevwori in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Festus Ahon, in Asaba, said that Diri’s emergence for another term in office was epoch-making.
He lauded Diri for his prosperity vision for Bayelsans which, according to him, would engender the sustainable growth and development of the state.
Oborevwori said that the “overwhelming victory and peaceful conduct of the election” would spur Governor Diri to do more for Bayelsans who massively gave him a resounding mandate.
He commended Diri for his message of unity and for deepening transparency and accountability in governance.
“On behalf of the government and people of Delta, I congratulate Governor Douye Diri and his amiable and loyal Deputy, Senator Lawrence Ewhrudjakpor, on their inauguration for a second term in office.
“The Bayelsa governorship election of November 11, 2023, testified to your undying and patriotic resolve to put the interest of the people before other primordial ones.
“I am impressed and encouraged by your call for a united Bayelsa state, going into your second term in office. The call is germane because no society can develop in an atmosphere of disunity.
“I commend you for keeping with the priorities and goals of your prosperity agenda to create wealth among your people, even as you continue to build sustainable infrastructure for the growth and development of Bayelsa State.
“I am quite confident that your re-election and assumption of office for a second term will pave the way for you to do more for the people of Bayelsa in appreciation of their massive support for you.”
