Oborevwori’s Performance: Delta Oppositions Are Now Silent – Aniagwu

Delta State Commissioner for Works (Rural and Riverine Roads), Mr Charles Aniagwu, has said opposition in the state is now silent because it used to be very virile in the past.

He linked the reason to the amazing performances of the Sheriff Oborevwori administration.
Aniagwu, who disclosed this on a live television programme monitored in Asaba, on the “Developments within the sub-nationals year 2024 in retrospect”, remarked that 2024 was a great year for Deltans with the entire state witnessing construction works across all local government areas.

He said the state’s opposition used to be very vociferous but is now confounded by the Oborevwori administration’s outstanding accomplishments in infrastructural and human capital development.
The works commissioner further said Governor Oborevwori introduced a novel approach to budgeting by providing for internal roads in the 25 local government areas.

“In the 2024 budget, we introduced a novel approach to budgeting for our local government areas. We provided for the 25 local government areas so that every local government had a head, and this year, we provided just N1 billion as an intervention per local government.

“That is not the entire budget. That is for every local government, internal roads within a particular local government.

“But having seen the miracles and milestones we have recorded using that approach this year, we tried to increase it. We have for 2025 taken it above N2 billion per local government to provide for ongoing and completed projects,” Aniagwu added.
