Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Delta State Council has congratulated Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, Governor of Delta State on his victory at the tribunal in a judgment delivered in Asaba.

The council in a statement signed by Com. Michael Ikeogwu and Com. Churchill Oyowe, Chairman and Secretary respectively said that the victory is a reaffirmation of the confidence vote passed on the Governor by Deltans at the last governorship poll.

According to the statement, the tribunal judgment further strengthened the saying that the judiciary is the last hope of the common man, adding that if it had been otherwise, the wishes of the people of Delta State would have been truncated.

The council appealed to the governor to reciprocate the judgment by remaining people-oriented in his programmes and activities of building a Stronger Delta.

The council used the opportunity to congratulate Comrade Kingsley Azuh on his reappointment as Senior Special Assistant to the Delta State Governor on Special Duties.

The reappointment, the council noted is a confirmation of the confidence the governor reposed in Comrade Kingsley Azuh to deliver on assigned role and responsibility.

While thanking the governor for the appointment of Comrade Azuh, popularly referred to as the Life Chair’, the council expressed confidence in his ability to continue to be worthy ambassador of the NUJ in Governor Okowa’s administration.
