Appealing to Deltans to fulfil and accomplished the task of reelecting governor Ifeanyi Okowa who is committed to the development of the state, Osawota disclosed that, the State Governor; Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa is committed to the development of Orogun, saying; the Ministry of Works is set to mobilize to Orogun and commence work on the Obedeti-Eboh-Aragba road, and the Imodje-Otorho-Abbi ring road and they must see the reelection of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa as a task that must be accomplished”.
