He made this assertion while playing host to members of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Delta State Council 2022 Press Week Committee who had visited to intimate him about their Press Week, adding that the person must be well informed about the deep nature and complexity of Delta State.

The chairman, House Committee on Public Accounts, who tipped the speaker of the State Assembly, Hon Sheriff Oborevwori to emerge as the next governor of Delta State, affirmed that he is qualified to step into Senator Ifeanyi Okowa’s shoes.

“Of course, that is why I am rooting for Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, he has witnessed how he has successfully managed 28 members from across the state. He has all it takes to lead Delta progressively and better from the point Okowa is going to leave it.

“This is not the time to begin to play clannish politics, we should be interested in where Delta State is heading from here. Mr. Speaker has the capacity, the character and acumen to administer the state, the same way he has successfully been administering the 29 constituencies of the state”, Elekeokwuri posited.

While hinting that the union would use the platform to celebrate and honour credible Deltans for their contributions to societal development since the inception of Delta State, he assured him that the legislature would be carried along when deciding who merits the honour.
