Delta State Governor, Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has threatened to sanction any public official whose conduct is established to be at variance with the administration’s vision and mandate.
Governor Oborevwori handed down the warning at the swearing-in/inauguration of Chairmen and members of some Commissions and Boards in Asaba.
He said, “Today, we continue the process of assembling a winning team for the advancement of our dear state under the MORE agenda.
“The men and women that have just been sworn in are persons of proven track record of performance who will bring their wealth of knowledge, experience, expertise and wisdom to bear on the running of the government.
“It is a call to servant-leadership. A servant-leader focuses on identifying and meeting the needs of others, protecting their rights, and being a good example to them.
“These are the qualities expected of you. When a leader transparently and faithfully serves the needs of others or the organization, he will not only get the best out of people, he will also earn their respect and admiration. The interest and wellbeing of the people is paramount.
“Furthermore, when service is the focus of leadership, it does not matter who gets the credit or whether you are recognized or not. You are happy as long as the common good is served and the people are uplifted.”
He warned, “Let me make it clear that this administration will not fail to sanction any public official who is found wanting in the discharge of his duties or whose conduct is found to be at variance with our vision and mandate.”
The governor said the admonitions equally apply to the Chairmen and members of the boards inaugurated, including Delta State Waste Management Board, with Mr. Matthew Mofe Edema as Chairman and Ethe Enifome Juliet as member.
