The Delta State Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, Mr. Charles Aniagwu, has described Governor Sheriff Oborevwori as a leader redefining excellence in governance, following his recognition at the 18th Leadership Annual Conference and Awards held at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, Abuja, on Thursday.
Speaking at the event, Aniagwu gave glory to God for what he described as outstanding leadership qualities bestowed on Gov. Oborevwori, noting that each public appearance by the governor comes with inspiring direction and renewed hope for the people.
“First of all, I give God the glory for being wonderful to our leader, a man who has come to redefine excellence. Each time he steps out, he brings something that warms the hearts of the people and provides positive direction,” Aniagwu said.
The commissioner stated that the national recognition of the governor’s performance was a source of pride, emphasizing that the administration’s achievements in Delta State are being acknowledged far beyond the state’s borders.
“For what we are doing in Delta to be so recognized nationally is something we take pride in. I feel very happy being associated with him.
“The fact that credible organizations are recognizing that the governor is doing wonders is quite welcoming,” he added.
Aniagwu noted that while the state government does not lobby for awards, some recognitions cannot be ignored due to the pedigree and credibility of the awarding bodies.
“As someone at the center of advancing His Excellency’s engagements, there are times we are cautious so that people do not think we are chasing awards. But there are awards we cannot resist because of the standing of those conferring them,” he explained.
He stressed that Gov. Oborevwori’s primary focus remains adding value to the lives of Deltans, a commitment he said has naturally attracted a wave of honours from reputable national media and institutions.
“His business is to add value to the lives of Deltans. Today, many people across the country are saying that so much is happening in Delta.

He specifically highlighted the New Telegraph’s latest recognition of the governor as the number one governor in terms of performance, describing it as a significant endorsement.
