An Ndokwa group, Organised Ndokwa Effort, ONE has congratulated the new Chairman of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Lauretta Onochie, on her appointment, while commending President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government.
The group, in a letter, advised the NDDC boss to see the appointment as a call to service and urged her to steer the ship of the agency to safety and leave a footprint of superlative service to humanity in her administration.
The group stressed the need to reengineer a new and productive administration that will mark a clear departure from the checkered history of the NDDC board.
The letter, which was signed by the trio of the Chairman, Okei Ossai Udom, the Coordinator, Rodney Odibe Odili-Obi and a Principal Member, Dr Ezenwa Nwakonobi, described ONE as a duly registered socio-cultural organisation that promotes the progress and development of the Ndokwa people in the major Oil & Gas producing environment, comprising of Ndokwa-East, Ndokwa-West and Ukwuani Local Government Areas of Delta State, South-South Nigeria.
The letter reads: “We would like to join with the numerous well-wishers to heartily congratulate you, on your well-deserved appointment as the Chairman of the NDDC, which further confirms the confidence President Buhari has in your abilities to handle very high responsibilities at all times. Confident in your capacity to deliver on your mandate on the board of the NDDC, our people are proud to be associated with you.
“We trust that you already have a well-prepared Blueprint, as we believe that your leadership efficiency will enhance a vibrant development of the Niger Delta region to sustain peace across the region. As a true leader and a wise listener with an uncommon personal principle, you are indeed capable of leading the NDDC in the right direction.”
The group further pledged to the NDDC boss every bold backup support, while praying for wisdom and strength to carry out the responsibilities of her office with excellence, buoyant health.
“On behalf of the Board of Trustees and National Executive Council NEC of the ONE, please accept the highest esteem of our greetings, warmest congratulations, and support always.” Ossai Udom group stated.
The group called on the masses of Delta region to rally support for the new board to succeed, noting that Onochie is a detribalised person who doesn’t pander to administrative vices adding that his reign will mark the beginning of new era in the development of the region.
