The Chief Press Secretary to Delta State Governor, Sir Festus Ahon has dismissed the alleged insinuation that the state Governor, Rt. Hon Sheriff Oborewori is in loggerhead with the immediate past Governor of the state over the cabinet members, but that the governor is taking his time to pick suitable and competent hands to be appointed into the State Executive Council.
Sir Ahon, who was reacting to reports in a section of the media, said the Governor is not pressured from anyone, not even his predecessor, on the choice of cabinet members as was wrongly reported.
He described the publication as a figment of the imagination of the writer and appealed to Journalists to avoid speculations that could heat the polity.
Ahon said: “First, the State House of Assembly was constituted on June 13 and thereafter went on recess for two weeks and only reconvened on Tuesday, June 27.
“The Governor will pick credible and capable persons devoid of sentiments that will help him deliver on his M.O.R.E Agenda for Deltans.
“The report is therefore wrong in its entirety and borne out of mischief. Former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa does not interfere with appointments.”
He enjoined Deltans to be patient with the State Government as it was poised to deliver more for the people.
