Baptist convention lauds Oborevwori’s devt strides

Nigerian Baptist Convention has lauded the Governor of Delta State, Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori for his numerous achievements across the state.

The National President of the Men’s Missionary Union (MMU) of the Nigeria Baptist Convention, Dr Soye Asawo, made the commendation during a courtesy call on the State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori at Government House, Asaba, the states capital.

He said; “we identify with you and commend you for the developmental strides witnessed in Delta State since your assumption of duties in just over one year in office.

“Your focus on capital projects, especially in road infrastructure, with important flyover projects in Warri and Effurun, including one at the ever busy PTI Junction, by a very reputable construction company, is worthy of commendation as it will be to the benefit of not only the citizens and residents of the state but millions of other Nigerians who ply that route annually.

“This is among several other projects and programmes in education, healthcare and human capacity development going on simultaneously in the state.”

Asawo said this year’s Convention holding in the serene city of Asaba, Delta State has its theme “Wonders without Numbers” (Job 9: 10), with emphasis on the awesome power of God to do the impossible in the lives of His people.

“Oborevwori added, “Listening to you and all the commendations about the peaceful and serene atmosphere we have here, the access to the venue and good means of transportation; we are very happy.

“We know that there is hardship but the people understand that we are doing our best in terms of infrastructure and human capital development. We recently had the MORE grant where we empowered 5,500 people.

“We also did palliatives and we will continue to do more to cushion the effect of the challenges being faced in the country. We cannot leave it for the presidency alone. They’re doing their best and we are doing our best, too.

“I want to thank the President of the Men’s Union Convention for choosing Delta State for the convention. It will give people who haven’t been here before the opportunity to know Delta State.”
