The Deputy Governor of Delta
State, Barr. (Deacon) Kingsley Otuaro has said the Okowa administration
acknowledges security as key to industrialisation and has created the Advocacy Committee
Against Vandalism of Oil and Gas Facilities to ensure safe environments in the
State for business and economic investments to thrive.
According to him, the Delta State Advocacy Committee against
Vandalism of Oil and Gas Facilities led by himself, was forged out by the state government to
collaborate with presidential peace operations in the Niger Delta to pursue
peace and create an investor-friendly environment.
Speaking
at the just-concluded Nigeria International Petroleum Summit (NIPS) in Abuja,
the Deputy Governor who represented Governor Ifeanyi Okowa at the event said
another security organ set up fundamentally for this purpose in the state is
the Delta Waterways and Land Security Committee.
Wooing
investors to come to Delta, Otuaro stressed that the SMART Agenda of Governor
Okowa administration remained committed to peace as panacea for development,
while showcasing Delta State as potential investors’ delight and home to solid
mineral resources such as Kaolin, Lignite, Bitumen, Silica.
