Delta State governor, Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has threatened to sack underperforming members of the State Executive Council (SEC).

Speaking yesterday during the inauguration of eight newly built duplexes at the Commissioners’ Quarters in Asaba, he warned that under-performing commissioners would be shown the door.

The governor emphasised the need for commissioners to be proactive and visible and that performance, rather than tale-bearing, will determine their continued stay in office.

“If you are not performing, we will drop you, and that will not affect other people. If you are performing, you will stay. Like now, two or three people are not performing. I told one of them today at the chapel, you are not doing well.

“As a commissioner, we don’t see you. You talk, carry your memo, and look for the Governor, because the Governor will not come looking for you. There are others who are seeking me out; you have to bring energy and initiative into your ministry.”

“If there is a problem in any ministry, hold the commissioner responsible. Any ministry that is doing very well shows that the commissioner is doing very well,” he said.
He affirmed his administration’s commitment to accountability by holding each commissioner directly accountable for their ministry’s progress.

“I want to, once again, commend our commissioners for being loyal, dedicated, and hardworking. You know there are a lot of rumours saying the Governor wants to dissolve the Exco. These people haven’t even heard from me; this just shows that people like too much talk,” he said.

The governor clarified that while there is no blanket dissolution plan, under-performing commissioners would be shown the door.

The Dean of Commissioners and Commissioner for Finance, Chief Fidelis Tilije, thanked Governor Oborevwori for approving the construction of the new residential quarters and appealed for the renovation of the 22 old quarters.

The commissioner for Housing, Hon. Godknows Angele, said the project consists of eight duplexes with attached two boys’ quarters and lounges, among other things, and commended Governor Oborevwori for his support in completing the projects.
