Why I Have Not Appointed Cabinet Yet – Oborevwori

Published

on

Governor Sheriff Oborevwori has attributed delay in appointing his cabinet to his desire to pick suitable and competent hands and not because of pressure from any quarters.

BIGPEN NIGERIA (bigpenngr.com) reports that Oborevwori spoke following media reports that the Governor is being railroaded by his predecessor and others who are allegedly mounting pressure on him.

Speaking through his Chief Press Secretary, Sir Festus Ahon, Governor Oborevwori said he is not under pressure from anyone, not even his predecessor, on choice of cabinet members as was wrongly reported.

Ahon said that the Governor is taking his time to pick suitable and competent hands to be appointed into the State Executive Council.

He described the publication as a figment of the imagination of the writer and appealed to Journalists to avoid speculations that could heat up the polity.

Ahon said: “First, the State House of Assembly was constituted on June 13 and thereafter went on recess for two weeks and only reconvened on Tuesday June 27.

“The Governor will pick credible and capable persons devoid of sentiments that will help him deliver on his M.O.R.E Agenda for Deltans.

He enjoined Deltans to be patient with the State Government as it was poised to deliver more for the people.
