Otuaro Assures Delta NUJ Of Govt Partnership

Deputy Governor of Delta State, Deacon Kingsley Burutu Otuaro says the Delta State Government looks forward to a greater collaboration with the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) in the state just as he thanked the body for its proper reportage of government programmes.

The Deputy Governor stated this during a courtesy call on him, Thursday, by the Delta State Council of the NUJ led by its Chairman, Comrade Michael Ikeogwu who said the body had come to assure the Deputy Governor of support for his peace shuttles in the state.

The Delta NUJ said it was impressed by Otuaro’s cordial relationship with the State Governor, Senator (Dr) Ifeanyi Okowa which he said has no doubt promoted peace, investors’ confidence and development of the State.

Otuaro said the NUJ has demonstrated that it is an integral part of governance by properly propagating government activities, especially the pivotal peace building efforts of the Delta State Advocacy Committee Against Vandalism of Oil and Gas Facilities and other components of the “SMART” Agenda.

“We are willing and look forward to a greater collaboration and partnership and will support whatever productive venture you may be involved in keeping with objectives of government”, he said.
