A former spokesman to former Governor of Delta State, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, Comrade Monoyo Edon, has hailed the nomination of Ms. Orode Uduaghan, the President of Itsekiri youths, Comr. Oritseweyinmi Agbateyiniro, Dr. Isaac Tosan Wilkie, Hon. Samuel Oligida and others by Governor Sheriff Oborevwori as commissioners-designate into the State Executive Council.
Monoyo, who was also a Special Assistant on Media to immediate past Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, described Oborevwori’s appointments as most youth-friendly appointment in the political history of the state.
In a statement on Thursday, Uduaghan’s former media aide commended Rt. Hon. Oborevwori for the choice of youths into his soon-to-be-constituted cabinet.
Monoyo, who had declared his intention to contest the Warri South Council chairmanship seat on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as reassuring for Delta youths.
He stated that Governor Sheriff has made true one of his campaign promises of constituting his cabinet with over 50 percentage of youths based on his M.O.R.E Agenda.
He said, “Governor Sheriff continues to prove his traducers wrong. You can see the jubilation among the youthful population in Delta State. I don’t think youths have been more excited about a governor’s Commissioners’ list as you can see everywhere on social media. Governor Sheriff Oborevwori pledged to include more youths into his cabinet during electioneering. People said he was talking politics and that he lacked the willpower to do it. Has he not proven them wrong with this appointment? Those of us who worked for the emergence of Sheriff Oborevwori were privileged to see the fire in his bones for youth development and he has demonstrated that with this commissioners nomination”.
The chairmanship aspirant posited that the quality of the persons on the commissioners-designate list are people with excellent track records of public service and ready to serve Deltans.
“I have no doubt that all 26 of the commissioners-designate are more than capable to function creditably well in any portfolio assigned to them as we are already familiar with most of the names and their antecedents. Prior to the release of the list, Governor Oborevwori has reiterated that he would appoint qualified Deltans to work with him for the progress of our dear state. For instance, besides the fact that two of the four commissioners nominees from the Warri Area are youths, all four of them are people with wide acceptance and excellent professional qualification. Dr. Isaac Tosan Wilkie and Hon. Samuel Oligida are two known names in the politics of Delta State.
The community leader congratulated all the youths who made the list and tasked them with delivering beyond expectations as they hold the banner of record-breaking youths in politics.
