The Delta State House of Assembly, on Tuesday, approved the request of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori to appoint 20 Special Advisers to assist in driving the administration of the state.
The nominees are Justice Celestina Ogisi as Chairman, Prof. Louis Ojogwu, Mr Alexander Neyin, Dr Iris Ibi, Mr Augustine Eseagwu, Mr Festus Onyaeju, and Mrs Uju Monye.
The Speaker commended lawmakers for the successful screening and advised the nominees to put in their best effort to ensure the speedy delivery of justice in the state. Oborevwori said the appointment followed the need for reconstitution of the Advisory Council as a result of the expiration of the tenure of its members.
The Speaker, also at Tuesday’s plenary, condoled with the family of the former Head of Service of the state, Dr Samuel Okpokpor, over his demise at the weekend.All rights reserved.
