Warri North boss swears in lawmakers

By Gabriel Enogholase

THE newly-elected Chairman of Warri North Local Government Council, Eyituoyor Maku, has sworn in his deputy, Sunny Abilo, and 20 councillors.

Speaking after administering the oath of office on the councillors at the legislative chambers, Maku called for unity from the lawmakers, stressing that with oneness, they could move mountain.

Maku, who restated Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan’s warning that all elected council chairmen and councillors must reside in the council headquarters, rather than govern from exile, also warned against corruption.

Responding on behalf of the councillors, Sylvester Aduwenye said he and his colleagues would ensure that the new government delivered on its promise to bring dividends of democracy to the people.
