Governor of Delta state, Sheriff Oborevwori, has disclosed that his predecessor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, does not interfere in the governance of the state.
He said that unlike other former governors of some states, Okowa respects the Office of the Governor.
Oborevwori disclosed this in his remarks at the 60th birthday and 24th marriage anniversary thanksgiving of the state chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Olorogun Kingsley Esiso, at Living Faith Church, Shell Road, Sapele.
“Senator Okowa is a good man, he is not like other predecessors of other states.
“He has never interfered in the governance of the state. He has immense respect for the Office of the Governor being an immediate past occupant of the office.
“You are a good man, you are not like other predecessors in other states.
“Our immediate past Governor is very refined man. So many rumours were flying, but the truth is that he has never ever interfered with what we are doing in the state.”
He congratulated Esiso on his 60th birth anniversary, saying that thanksgiving to God increases a man’s age.
“Coming to thank God will increase your age. Some people will organise big parties but the most important thing is your coming to thank God who is the giver of life.”
The celebrant, Chief Kingsley Esiso, in his testimony commended immediate past Governor of the state, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, for his success as state chairman of the party.
