The Convener of Core Delta Youth (CDY), Uyero Erarawewho Junior in laughter and tears of joy, thanked the Governor of Delta State, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa and the Permanent Secretary Government House, Sir Edwin E. Ogidi-Gbebaje (Father and Boss) for his appointment as Special Assistant to the Governor on Political Matters. The appointment was announced on Monday, December 6, 2021.
According to Mr. Erarawewho, the appointment came as a pleasant surprise because he had expected it since a long time but didn’t come. “I have kept solace in God believing that one day my work will yield forth good fruits”.
“I thank God for this privilege given to me by Governor Okowa. I really appreciate his kind gestures for finding me worthy to serve in the capacity of SA Political.
“I also want to thank my “Father, Boss and mentor”, Sir Edwin Ogidi-Gbebaje who never gave up on me even when I lost hope during the times of my weakness. At the times I lost hope, he was there for me”.
“I want to thank God also for being alive to serve. I lost some of my Comrades on the field. If only I could turn back the hands of the clock, Late Comrade German Believe and late Comrade Kaka should still be with us to see this day come to reality. May their souls rest in peace. They were amongst the soldiers on the field that kept fighting for Delta State. Our vision for good Governance has come to pass and is practically seen in Governor Okowa’s administration. Youth inclusiveness in power which the Governor has been committing to. I am an evidence of that” he noted.
UYERO stated that the appointment isn’t for idleness but a call for duty. It will be for service to God and humanity and by God’s Grace he affirmed his readiness to work assiduously to make Delta a haven for all.
