TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE IT
His Excellency, Dr. Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan, CON, former Governor of Delta State joined Bishop Simeon Okah of the Flock of Christ Mission in their annual thanksgiving service earlier today in Warri.
Dr. Uduaghan while offering his goodwill message to the church and Deltans, tasked ethnic groups with embracing the diversity that makes Delta State unique in his short admonition titled, “Together We Can Make It”.
The two-term former governor used the opportunity to berate ethnic jingoists who served as clog on the wheel of progress of the state since its creation.
He also noted that deep-seated hate for one another has brought untold sufferings to Deltans and it is in genuinely embracing one another as inhabitants of same geographical location that we can truly know progress and peace.
He said, “togetherness is one of the biggest issues in Delta state till today. I had hinderances as governor. There were some fine programmes my administration proposed but were vehemently resisted by ethnic jingoists. They do not think of the larger picture or benefit of anything. They view everything from their suspicious ethnic lenses.”
The former governor advised Deltans who are also members of churches to learn from the life of our lord Jesus Christ whose greatest gift to mankind is love.
