The Honourable Commissioner, noted that the activities of Team SMART for Okowa was not only for the Governor’s benefit , emphasising that what they were doing was to the benefit of every well-meaning citizen of the state in view of the fact that the success of the Okowa’s administration, was being translated to improved standard of living for the people of the state, even as he pledged his support and the cooperation of the people of Udu local Government area towards the effective implementation of the activities of the Group.
Hon. Sakpra, who is a notable grassroots politician and a former Chairman of Udu Local Government Area, called on the leadership of Team SMART for Okowa to carry his people of Udu and every other segment of the state along in their activities.
According to him, “we are a people that are very passionate with anything that concerns the Governor and we will partner with you to ensure that you succeed in this great assignment you have given to yourselves,” while advising the Group to be careful of sycophants and betrayers who he noted were all out with bad and negative intentions that are inimical to the success of the present administration led by Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa.
Earlier in his Speech, the Director General of Team SMART for Okowa, Hon.

He said that, “We wish to acknowledge your contributions to the successes recorded within the last one and half year by His Excellency, the Governor, in the state. Though we may not have attained the Delta State of our dream, but we have progressed greatly from where we were in 2015 and by the grace of God, our destination to prosperity for all Deltans is sure.
“We have come to thank you and the people of Udu Local Government area for your massive support in the last elections, your support for this administration in the last one year and also your continued support in the nearest future
“The successes recorded by this administration in the last one and half year would not have been possible without your support and the support of Deltans even in the face of paucity of funds.”
Hon. Orishedere therefore call on the generality of the people of the state to continue with their support and cooperation with the State Governor, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa towards the realization of the SMART agenda, describing the person of Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa as a critical symbol of unity, even as he prayed that the harmony that kept the people of the state from 1999 would continue to blossom for the betterment of the state.
