“Her exemplary conduct in the Big Brother house was good and she did not bring any embarrassment to the state.

“As a state, we are very delighted that our daughter, Dorathy Bachor, emerged the Runner Up in the just-concluded BBNaija competition.

“We are glad that she and Neo related very well with the other housemates and survived all the evictions and avoided controversies in the house.

“They have portrayed the Delta character of being well behaved and worthy ambassadors of the state,’’ the governor stated.

He thanked the people of Delta and Nigerians for making their votes count for Bachor and Akpofure.

Okowa advised them to continue to conduct themselves responsibly at all times and wished them well in their other endeavours.
