…Says Interventions Reflect Oborevwori’s M.O.R.E. Agenda
The Delta State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission (DESOPADEC) has reaffirmed its commitment to accelerating infrastructural development in Ndokwa communities, assuring residents that ongoing projects in Ndokwa East Local Government Area will soon be completed and ready for commissioning.
The assurance was given by the DESOPADEC Governing Board Member representing Ndokwa ethnic nationality, Dr. Charles Olisa, during an inspection of ongoing commission-funded projects in the area on Saturday, November 14, 2026.
The inspection covered the Assembly Hall at Oduga Secondary School, Ushie, and the Ultra-Modern Civic Centre in Agwetiti Community.
Olisa expressed satisfaction with the level of progress and quality of work on both projects, commending the contractors for their professionalism, dedication and commitment to delivering infrastructure that meets the required standards.
He assured the people of Ushie, Agwetiti and the entire Agweyom Community that the projects would be completed shortly and made available for commissioning.
The DESOPADEC board member also pledged that more development initiatives would be attracted to Ndokwa communities, in line with the vision of the commission’s Governing Board under the leadership of its Chairman, Olorogun Barrister John Nani, and Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, Chief Surveyor Festus Ochonogor.
Describing the projects as practical demonstrations of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s M.O.R.E. Agenda, Olisa said DESOPADEC’s interventions were deliberately designed to complement the Delta State Government’s development priorities.
He explained that the commission’s focus on infrastructure, human capital development, and youth and women empowerment initiatives reflected its commitment to supporting the state government’s broader development objectives.
Olisa further stressed that DESOPADEC would sustain and intensify its interventions across oil-producing communities to ensure residents benefited from impactful, sustainable and people-oriented projects.
He reaffirmed the commission’s determination to execute programmes that would improve living conditions, strengthen community development and promote inclusive growth across oil-producing areas of Delta State.
