UGHELLI—A member of Delta State House of Assembly, Olorogun Taleb Tebite, yesterday, said that the state governor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, deserved all the awards he has received, describing him as one of the most hardworking governors in the country.

Tebite, who spoke to newsmen, said: “The 2013 Vanguard Personality award is well deserved. I join the good people of Delta State to congratulate the governor.
“The series of awards bagged by Governor Uduaghan are well deserved. The awards will spur him to do more because governance is all about the development of the people. Just walk around the state and you will see that Uduaghan really wants to end strong.

“As a member of the Appropriation Committee of the House, I took time off with my chairman, Mr. Daniel Mayuku, who is a hardworking and dogged fighter and a politician of note, to drive round the big-Warri area and we drove round the place on road. The governor has connected almost all the riverine communities in the state with standard roads.

“You need to go there and see for yourself, what the governor is doing. It is not just by talking, I saw them with my  eyes, and I am saying it the way it is. Kudos must be given to the Commissioner for Infrastructure, Orezi Esievo, who is doing everything possible for her boss to succeed.

“I must also commend the drive of the Secretary to the State Government, SSG, Mr. Ovuozorie Macaulay, in making sure that anything that comes to him moves straight to the appropriate quarter without delay. The synergy between the governor, the SSG and the commissioners is commendable.”
