The Special Assistant to the Delta state Governor (Social Media) Comr. Godspower Omafuvwe Asiuwhu has described the state Governor, Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa as the present day biblical Nehemiah, building strong walls in defense of the states economy against the global recession enveloping the Nation.
Comr. Asiuwhu who gave the description while fielding questions from journalists who thronged his country like a Mecca of sort further likened Governor Okowas distractors to the people who lived near. Jerusalem and didn't want the city to be built.
"It wouldn't be out of place to describe the present crop of leaders at the helm of affairs in Delta state, ably led by Governor Ifeanyi Okowa as the same set of capable, People oriented, goal driven men of old in biblical times, specifically, during the time of Nehemiah, who rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem to the benefit of its inhabitants, his people.
"The Gov. Ifeanyi Okowa led PDP administration is presently building walls against the anti-developmental policies the APC led Federal Government is implementing that brought our economy to a halt. I guess a lot of you might not understand how these walls are being built, but I guess when you get to Songhai farms in Amukpe and see the number of youths being trained there on full sponsorship by the state Government you'll understand better, or when you stroll down to the newly constructed Oteri road here in Ughelli, you'll understand well, or when you drive to states polytechnic at Ozoro and see the edifice of a stadium that was jointly constructed with the Schools Management to improve human capital development, you'll understand or when you visit the General Hospital in my hometown, Patani, you would understand better how this administration is building walls against economic turn down, against youth restiveness, against unemployment and so many other vices bedeviling our society today.
"But as usual, in every task aimed at improving the livelihood of a larger people, there must be those who are against you. Just like the neighbors of Jerusalem back then who fought tooth and nail against the progressive work being done, this administration also has distractors who fight daily against the progress and development of Delta state, but unfortunately for them, like the workers who rebuilt the wall, we are also armed with both the goodwill of the people we serve and the good works we are embarking upon" he added.
