The Delta state government has said it will continue to partner with Ohaneze Ndigbo and other investors for the growth and economic development of the state.
This was revealed by SPA to Delta state Governor, Sen. Emmanuel Aguariavwodo when he received the Chairman and members of Ohaneze Ndigbo, Delta Central and South Senatorial Districts led by its President, Chief Chiedu Idama in his office in Asaba.
He said the state government would continue to partner with Ohaneze Ndigbo and other investors for the growth and economic development of the state.
He said the Ndigbos should take advantage of the investor-friendly atmosphere of the state to bring more of their businesses to Delta State.
He said, “I am always impressed whenever am in the midst of the Ohaneze because of your enterprising spirit.
He added, “I want to salute the enterprising spirit of the Igbo people because in this world, without enterprise or business we cannot create wealth and without wealth creation, you cannot have savings and that is what you do every day.
“This government is your government, having worked hard to produce this government, you will always be remembered.
“Governor Oborevwori is an action Governor and as he is saying it, he is acting, and I know that he will remember you all in a short while.
“Delta is an investor-friendly state, and we are pleased when we hear that with the two bridges linking Delta and Anambra, Onitsha would soon become part of Asaba.
“We know you have a huge population and investments in the South West, tell them to bring their businesses to a more investor-friendly state like Delta.
“We need to have your businesses and innovations to be established here because Delta is a peaceful state.
“The last administration worked very hard for the peace we are enjoying today and the Oborevwori’s administration would do more so that businesses will thrive,” Aguariavwodo said.
He said that with the liberalization of the power sector in the country, state governments and private sector investors can now bring their investments into the power sector uninhibited.
Earlier, Chief Idama said they were at his office to felicitate with him in on his appointment as Senior Political Adviser, noting that his appointment was well-deserved.
He noted that the group was formed to represent the interests of Ndigbos worldwide, adding that they had an excellent relationship with the state government, especially during the administration of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa.
