Why I set up second term transition committee – Okowa

Delta State Governor, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Okowa has explained his decision to set up a Transition Committee for his second term in office, was borne from the need for an independent assessment of his administration’s performance so far.

Receiving the report of the 20-man committee which was presented in volumes by its Chairman, Prof. Sam Oyovbaire on Friday in Asaba, the governor said the committee’s report would spur his next tenure to be more committed and fruitful to the people of the state

According to the governor, “Some persons have asked me why we are setting up transition committee bearing in mind that I am continuing as Governor till 2023 and I have told them that the committee need to assess what we did in the first tenure independently and advise us on what to do in the areas we need to improve on and also, applaud us in the areas we need to sustain because, I will like to be remembered at the end of my tenure as a Governor who has done very well.“
