DELTA 2015: TONY CHUKS OBUH - WHY HE IS FORMIDABLE




Much has been said and written about the former Permanent Secretary, Government House and Protocol to the government of Delta State, Tony Chucks Obuh and his desire to guard the affairs of Delta State beginning May 29, 2015 by the special Grace of the Almighty God. Tony Obuh represents various things to many people at different times. To his potential opponents he is a terror that must be contained, and they and their supporters have chosen ignoble propaganda and have used half-truths to daub him.  

His die-hard supporters and the people of Delta State see him as “a Daniel” who has “come to judgment”. This group believes, and rightly so, that as Governor, Tony Obuh will carry everyone along as he strives to make Delta a better place for generations to come.  Tony Obuh has been highly praised as an experienced technocrat by individuals and groups.  On the other end, he has also been maligned as a political neophyte by those who seek to pulverize him.

But it is clear that Tony Obuh will build on the foundations created by Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan and even break new grounds. Tony Obuh comes in with a wealth of knowledge and experience that has prepared and positioned him to take the baton from Governor Uduaghan.  He is imbued with humility and has the requisite temperament to succeed Governor Uduaghan and steer the State to being the economic focal point of the region.  

Tony Chuks Obuh is SIMPLY RIGHT for Delta State.

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove...

THE ENDURING LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP: Chief James Ibori Celebrated for His Impact on Delta State

On Friday, May 31st, during the funeral service for the Late Asagba of Asaba, the essence of true leadership was vividly displayed. The service featured the introduction of various dignitaries, including Senator George Akume, Secretary to the Government of the Federation who represented President Bola Tinubu, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, Governor Godwin Obaseki, and Former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa. As each dignitary was introduced, the church remained silent.
