The Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, has assured members of the State Executive that he’s not planning their wholesale dissolution.

Oborevwori, however, maintained that underperforming commissioners in his administration will be shown the exit door.

The governor spoke on Monday during the inauguration of eight newly constructed duplexes at the Commissioners’ Quarters in Asaba.

He maintained that his decisions will not be influenced by rumours regardless of how widespread they are.

He stated, “If you are not performing, we will drop you, and that will not affect others. If you are performing, you will stay. Currently, two or three people are not performing. I told one of them today at the chapel that they are not doing well.”

Speaking on the rumours, he added, “There are many rumours that the Governor wants to dissolve the Executive Council. These people haven’t even heard from me; it just shows that people like to talk too much.”

The governor stressed the importance of initiative and visibility among commissioners.

“As a commissioner, we don’t see you. You come with your memo and look for the Governor, but the Governor will not come looking for you. Others seek me out; you must bring energy and initiative to your ministry,” he said.

He continued: “If there is a problem in any ministry, hold the commissioner responsible. Any ministry that is performing well reflects well on its commissioner.”

The governor emphasized that project delivery is part of dividends of democracy, noting, “We have many projects to commission. We may not complete them all by year-end, but we will do our best.”

“We are commissioning eight units of four-bedroom duplexes, each with two boys’ quarters attached. When we took office, there were only 22 buildings at the Commissioners’ Quarters, but the number of commissioners exceeds that, so we had to build more accommodation. This demonstrates our commitment to the welfare of senior government officials.” the governor said concerning the new residential units.

He reaffirmed his administration’s dedication to accountability, holding each commissioner directly responsible for their ministry’s progress.
