Our administration, product of God’s grace, mercy – Oborevwori
Delta Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, Sunday, said that his administration was a product of the grace and mercy of God.
Oborevwori accompanied by his wife, Tobore, stated this at the thanksgiving service in honour of his Deputy, Sir Monday Onyeme, at St. John’s Anglican Church, Ibabu, Ndokwa West Local Government Area of the State.
The Governor stressed the importance of thanksgiving in perfecting the acts of God upon any man, adding that he overcame so many challenges to become Governor.
Oborevwori said: “I am happy to be here to join my friend and brother, the Deputy Governor, Sir Monday Onyeme and his wife, Catherine to give thanks to God for our successful inauguration as Governor and Deputy and for all our victories at the election and in the courts.
“We have come to thank God for finding us worthy to serve at this time in the history of our dear State.
“Onyeme and I are products of God’s mercy and grace. We will continue to give God thanks for giving us the opportunity to lead Delta State at this time despite several challenges, which we overcame by God’s grace.
“Thanking God is very important and that is why we will continue to appreciate the hand of God upon our lives and State,”
He commended the immediate past administration of Senator Ifeanyi Okowa for his skills training and entrepreneurship programmes, assuring that his administration will do more to touch the lives of Deltans.
“Sir Monday Onyeme, I am happy I chose you to be my Deputy but it is indeed God that chose you and by the grace of God, we will work together to deliver on our M.O.R.E Agenda,” he said.
He assured Deltans that his administration would be fair and just in appointments and distribution of projects, enjoining Deltans to continue to pray for him to enable him deliver on his campaign promises to the people.
“The appointments are coming and it will be a mix of both the young, average and the old. God is leading us, nobody is directing this administration. We will do the right thing for our people at the right time,” Oborevwori added.
Bishop of Ika Diocese and Supervising Bishop of Ndokwa Diocese, Rt. Rev’d Godfrey Ekpenisi congratulated Sir Monday Onyeme and his wife, Catherine on their emergence as Deputy Governor of the State.
In a sermon titled; “Seven principles of starting and finishing strong”, Bishop Ekpenisi urged leaders to seek wisdom, promote excellence, be good and disciplined leaders, show love to the people, nurture their families and honour God throughout their tenures.
The cleric further called on leaders to be disciplined and show empathy to the people they are leading, adding that “a leader does not force leadership on people, he earns it by his actions,” Bishop Ekpenisi said.
Investigations by Nigerian Concord Newspaper reveal that the Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Shippers Council, Mr. Pius Akutah, has allegedly misappropriated public funds for a lavish lifestyle.
According to our findings, within months of assuming office, Akutah allegedly purchased a bulletproof SUV valued at approximately N850 million. In addition, he is reported to have acquired over twenty exotic SUVs for use as a convoy.
Akutah is also said to have acquired multiple high-value properties, including three in Abuja’s Maitama and Asokoro districts worth over N2 billion, and two in Lagos’ Banana Island valued at N1.8 billion. These acquisitions appear far beyond the scope of his official salary and allowances.
Further investigation suggests that Akutah may be using public funds to support political ambitions, including allegedly grooming militants across 23 local government areas in Benue State for a potential 2027 gubernatorial bid.
Staff of the Shippers Council reportedly claim that Akutah frequently accesses the council’s treasury without proper authorization. Some insiders have indicated that a petition will soon be filed with the EFCC, ICPC, and the Presidency to report his alleged misconduct.
