The Commissioner for Information, Dr Michael Osuoza has counselled youths and all indigenes of the Delta to embrace peace and harmonoous coexistence to enable the state make sustainable progress.
The Commissioner gave the charge in a short video, that has now gone viral, which preached against violence and communal clashes.
The state has been in the news in the past one month for the wrong reasons.
According to Dr Osuoza, “Since May 29, 2023, when he assumed office as the Executive Governor of Delta State, His Excellency, Rt. Hon. (Elder) Sheriff Oborevwori has made it very clear that Peace is Priceless and his administration would ensure that sustainable peace reigned across the Three Senatorial zones in Delta State.
“To achieve this very crucial governance mandate, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori made sure it was enshrined in the MORE Agenda under the Enhanced Peace and Security mandate.
“Peace and security create the right atmosphere for social and economic life, it enhances Job Creation efforts and strategies for youths, improves living conditions for our people, ensures Social stability and security of lives and properties, and most importantly, encourages the administration to embark on massive and life impacting social and infrastructural development and the delivery of more democracy dividends for the people.
“Let us support our dear Governor Sheriff Oborevwori by embracing peace and harmonious coexistence as he continues to deliver MORE goodies for Deltans.”
