Oshimili South LG Records More Development as Oborevwori Urges other Council Chairmen to Take a Cue

It was a moment of joy as the Hon. Dr. Kelvin Ezenyili led administration in Oshimili South Local Government Area of Delta State delivered a newly constructed town hall ( Ogwa-Ukwu Ahaba ) to the people of Asaba.

Speaking during the commissioning of the project, Hon. Ezenyili said, “the Ogwa-Ukwu Ahaba from conception over 100 years ago, is the central meeting place of the Asaba traditional institution; it is a sort of parliament in Asaba Traditional Government; it is the office of the Out-Ihaza, a body akin to that of the Legislative Arm of Government.

The council chairman explained that the initiative to reconstruct the Ogwa-Ukwu Ahaba was born out of his desire for community development, infrastructure development as well as development governance.

Describing the Ogwa Ukwu as an extension of the palace, the traditional Ruler of Asaba, HRM Obi Edozien thanked the Chairman of the Council for erecting the edifice for the community.

Also, the member representing Oshimili South Constituency at the Delta State House of Assembly, Hon. Bridget Anyafulu assured the people that those who are holding elective positions are passionate about the welfare of the people.

The State Governor, Rt Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori who inaugurated new Ogwa Ukwu, Ahaba, also congratulated Ezenyili on “the delivery of this ultra-modern community centre.”

Governor Oborevwori who was represented by his Deputy, Sir Monday Onyeme said “This project is an enduring legacy that the people of Asaba will always appreciate each time they gather here to discuss the affairs of the community; it is my hope that other local government councils will follow suit and deliver quality projects like this.”

Assuring the Traditional ruler that Asaba will continue to receive priority attention, he promised that all ongoing projects in the city and its environs will be completed while new ones will also be initiated.”
