God bless the visionary leader for his developmental strides he has brought to Deltans. Deltans will sincerely miss our dear Governor Uduaghan,but his legacies will continue to speak for him. God bless our visionary leader. Indeed you have finished strong.

The visionary leader has spoken again, there is the need for all to be focus in order to achieve the desired goals and objectives. On point sir.

This is wonderful. This are part of the developmental strides achieve by the Uduaghan‘s administration. Completing of on going projects by the Uduaghan‘s administration has once again proved his critics wrong. Uduaghan‘s administration is finishing very strong.

Of a truth, the Delta State Government, has delivered more to Deltans in so many ways, in terms of good health care system, transportation, conducive learning environment for school children. Micro credit facilities for our youths and so many more but to mention a few. God bless the visionary leader for his developmental strides he has brought to the state.

Frankly speaking, taking a closer look at our economy holistically, it does need overhauling. Because the need to have effective managers that are prudent and cost effective in managing our economy and resources within our economy is of utmost importance. EEU, is speaking the minds of millions of people. God bless EEU.

Asaba, airport has been rated one of the best airport in the country with modern equipment and facilities put in place by the Uduaghan‘s administration. I don't see any reason why NCAA, will wake up from no where and say they downgrade the Asaba Airport. This is the only airport that has been more functional with more aircraft coming to land. Why now that the Uduaghan‘s administration is finishing strong, about leaving, that NCAA is waking up. All this are handwork of mischief makers. The issue of perimeter fencing NCAA, is talking, is already in its completion stage.
