The Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, has expressed deep shock and grief over the death of Mr. Anthony Chucks Obuh, a one-time leading governorship aspirant in Delta State.
Senator Omo-Agege recalled that Mr. Obuh was a consummate bureaucrat in the Delta State Civil Service and served as Permanent Secretary in charge of his Office in 2007, as the Secretary to the Delta State Government.
In a statement signed personally by Senator Omo-Agege, the DSP noted that “Mr. Obuh was a thoroughly fine gentleman, friend and brother. He was a thoroughbred technocrat and a peaceful politician, committed to excellence in public governance.
“I am saddened by the news of Mr. Tony Obuh’s reported demise. He was a very knowledgeable bureaucrat who had a full and unique grasp of the finest details of the workings of public governance in our state.
"As SSG in 2007, Mr. Obuh was the Permanent Secretary in charge of my Office. He was, without question, one of our finest public management technocrats in my time as SSG, and even thereafter. Mr. Obuh helped our State to make remarkable positive governance impacts".
The DSP extended his heartfelt condolences to Obuh’s family and friends whilst enjoining Deltans to remember them in their prayers at this very trying moment of losing such an illustrious Deltan.
Signed:
Yomi Odunuga,
Special Adviser, Media and Publicity, to the Deputy President of the Senate.

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...
