The Delta State Public Procurement Commission recently hosted a comprehensive one-day training session aimed at equipping accounting officers across Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) for effective and accountable implementation of the 2025 state budget. The training, which included Permanent Secretaries, Directors of Planning, Research and Statistics, and Heads of Procurement, emphasized the critical role these officers play in ensuring fiscal discipline and transparency.

David Igbodo, Chairman of the State Procurement Council, highlighted the importance of the training, highlighting the vital role accounting officers have in aligning the state’s fiscal policies with tangible development outcomes. Igbodo pointed out that the session was an opportunity to deepen understanding of procurement principles, compliance standards, and to ensure that every MDA’s actions align with the MORE Agenda of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori.

The MORE Agenda, as Igbodo emphasized, is more than just a policy—it is a transformative vision for Delta State. Every procurement decision must reflect value for money, ensuring that every project not only meets budgetary expectations but also serves the broader public interest. “Each expenditure must be justified, and each project must deliver real, measurable outcomes,” said Igbodo.

Igbodo, a retired Assistant Inspector General of Police, also reminded the accounting officers of the robust sanctions provided under the State Public Procurement Law for any procurement violations. He stressed that the Commission expects full compliance from all officers involved in the procurement process, reinforcing the importance of diligence and transparency in the execution of public funds.

The Director-General of the Commission, Mr. Edwin Abraka, echoed Igbodo’s sentiments, emphasizing the importance of continuous training. He urged the participants to apply the knowledge gained during the session to improve their professional practices and enhance the efficiency of the state’s procurement system.

This training also marked the first public engagement of the State Head of Service, Dr. (Mrs.) Minnie Oseji, following her inauguration. The event featured insightful lectures from seasoned professionals, including Mr. Okekeri Obas, who explained the processes and procedures for awarding contracts under the state’s procurement laws. Mr. Albert Osiagwu provided a deep dive into the functions of the Commission, while Barr. Philip Tom-Biger delivered a detailed presentation on the offenses and penalties outlined in the Delta State Procurement Law (2020).

The Delta State said the training is important in ensuring that public procurement processes remain transparent, efficient, and accountable as the state prepares for the implementation of its 2025 budget.
