1st Anniversary: CUPP, IPAC Praise Gov Oborevwori’s Remarkable Achievements, Say Delta Has Become ‘A Construction Site’
The Coalition of United Political Parties, CUPP and the Inter Party Advisory Council, IPAC in Delta state have commended Governor Sheriff Oborevwori for making the entire state become a huge construction site within his one year in office.
The state IPAC Chairman , Prince Henry Eze and his CUPP counterpart, Chief Efe Tobor Josiah, who jointly presided over the press conference that was held in Asaba on Thursday, congratulated Governor Sheriff Oborevwori on his administration’s first anniversary and thanked him for his efforts to connect communities with roads and bridges for sustainable development.
A statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com on Thursday noted that Eze, who spoke on behalf of the two groups, said the most iconic of the infrastructure projects is the award of a N78 billion contract to Julius Berger for the construction of three mega bridges, cloverleaf and road expansion works in Warri and Effurun.
‘CUPP/IPAC laud Governor Oborevwori on the construction of other road networks and bridges scattered all over the three senatorial districts in the state and for attracting new faculties to the University of Science and Technology, Ozoro.
We also commend Governor Oborevwori for his accomplishments in the construction of administrative and faculty buildings and 2km internal roads in the University’ he said.
Speaking further, Prince Eze commended Governor Oborevwori for being worker- friendly by paying the backlog of over N5.5 billion promotion arrears to civil servants and for also facilitating the payment of N40 billion to local government pensioners and retired primary school teachers.
He said: ‘We also thank Governor Oborevwori for the recruitment of over 3,000 teaching and non-teaching staff for primary schools across the 25 local governments in the state.
Students at tertiary institutions across the country who are Delta state indigenes, numbering over 60,000 have received their 2022/2023 bursary while also approving 25% reduction in acceptance fees in the four state owned universities’.
The CUPP and IPAC leaders also hailed Governor Oborevwori for providing ‘palliative’ measures to cushion the effects of petrol subsidy removal on workers, widows, vulnerable groups, the aged and vulnerable segments of society.
‘The State More Grant Scheme has recorded tremendous results as over 5,000 beneficiaries in targeted trades/artisans have been empowered recently with direct beneficiaries of the Delta COVID-19 Action Recovery and Economic Stimulus (D-CARES) getting exponentially increased from 36,353 to 110,841 within one year of the Oborevwori administration.
All these feats were achieved without Governor Oborevwori borrowing a kobo in the last one year and following from the above, we can confidently say that we have been vindicated with regard to the adoption of Governor Oborevwori as consensus candidate ahead of the 2023 Governorship election as he has even surpassed our expectations’ Eze added-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
