A total of at least 730 workers of Delta Transport Services Limited a.k.a Delta Line, have been sacked without payment of compensation, as the state governor sales the transport company.
Gov. Okowa
According to an authoritative report by
SaharaReporters , the Delta State governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, has sanctioned the sale of Delta Transport Services Limited (Delta Line) to GIG (God Is Good Motors) Transport Development Company Limited for N161 million. The acceptance of the price offer was sequel to the rejection of a N2 billion bid from Delta State chapter of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC).
The curious sale of the company to GIG Motors has resulted in the sack, without payment of compensation, of the 730 workers of Delta Line.
It was learned that the sale, executed without due process, left the state government with 30% stake in the company, handing 70% to GIG.
A Delta State Ministry of Justice document indicated that the name of the company will be changed after five years.
To hatch the plot, a top government official disclosed that Okowa used Kingsley Emu, Finance Commissioner, and Chairman, Partial Privatization Of Delta Transport Services Limited; David Edebvie, Commissioner for Economic Planning; and Peter Mrakpor, Attorney-General, and Commissioner for Justice.
According to the government official, the asset was deliberately undervalued because Okowa was buying by proxy.
"The real part of the deal between, which is yet unknown to most people, is that Okowa is the real buyer of the company but has decided to use the God Is Good Motors as front and after five years, the company's name will be changed," the top government official told SaharaReporters.
He also disclosed that the owner of GIG Motors contributed Mercedes-Benz buses to the governorship campaign of Okowa.
"It was because of that the governor directed Edevbie to advertise for bids, which was a formality, as the transport company was sold for N161 million and a bid of N2billion by the NLC was turned down," explained the government source

This okowa, draining the state dry of funds and still sacking workers. I weep for my state.

Okowa, ibori, etc are all bunch of rebranded looters deceiving deltans since 1879.

As it stands now, I don't know who is better off. Uduaghan came in and looted with his big nose. Okowa is looting now with his big mouth and oversized teeth.
Whatever structures that delta state is enjoying today where all laid by Ibori. Though he looted so much but he did something tangible.
Uduaghan came in and looted without anything apart from fly overs.
Okowa, only God knows what he is doing.
