Delta State Commissioner for Works (Rural and Riverine), Mr. Charles Aniagwu, has commended the State Governor Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori for his exemplary financial discipline and prudent management of state resources.
Aniagwu praised the governor’s commitment to ensuring transparency and accountability in the utilization of public funds.
The Public Information Commissioner who was flanked by his counterpart in the ministry of Finance, Sir. Fidelis Tilije, emphasized that this approach has fostered confidence among stakeholders and enabled the government to deliver impactful projects across the state.
He noted that Oborevwori’s focus on fiscal responsibility aligns with his administration’s “MORE Agenda,” which aims to prioritize development, infrastructure, and sustainable growth for the benefit of all Deltans.
Aniagwu urged citizens to support the governor’s efforts to transform the state through effective governance and responsible financial practices.
He described Governor Oborevwori as a man of impeccable integrity who has demonstrated a lot of transparency in the running of the affairs of the state.
Hear him: “We have read out a number of projects that we have embarked upon in the last 19 and half months, and that all those projects are being funded by the funds that are at the disposal of the state.
“And that at no time in the last 19 and a half months has the state made any move to ask anybody to give us money in form of loan.
“We are only using what is available to us that comes in from our entire state. we have not at any time borrowed a penny, and so we were surprised when we saw a report in one of the online platforms suggesting that we are number one in terms of borrowing.
“We don’t know where that came from because as a state we are on a platform of solid liquidity.
“We are not only liquid, but we are solidly liquid to be able to deal with the problems that we have and that tells you the management skills of the Oborevwori administration,” he said.
