The Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo has said that Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State would leave worthy legacies behind for Deltans at the end of his tenure in 2023.

Prof. Osibanjo stated this on Monday in Asaba during the commissioning of the Prof. Chike Edozien Secretariat Complex for civil servants and the 8.5 Megawatts Asaba Independent Power Plant, IPP.

Stating that the secretariat complex was a major monument enshrining the power and splendour of the authority of the state government, he commended Gov.Okowa.

“Despite dwindling revenue receipt and severe resource constraints across all levels of government, the governor has been able to provide funding for this project.

“Public servants require an environment that brings out the best in them, and this secretariat complex will provide such an environment.

“The completion of this complex is another demonstration of what Okowa has shown over the years that with visionary leadership, a state government can do incredible things indeed, and am sure this one would be a worthy legacy.”

The state secretariat complex was solely executed by the state government, but the Asaba IPP was executed in partnership with a private firm, Bastanchury Power Solutions Nigeria Limited and Africa Plus Partners.
