The Speaker of the Delta State House
of Assembly, Rt Hon (Engr.) Victor Ochei has resigned as the Speaker of the
state Legislature, citing his personal resolve to pave way for a new leadership
of the house as his reason.
In a letter addressed to the Deputy
Speaker of the house, Rt Hon (Barr.) Basil Ganagana, the erstwhile Speaker,
stated that he hoped the new leadership will take the state and house to a
higher level, having contributed his quota in that regard.
According to him, “I wish to thank
all those, numerous and many who made my tour of duty a pleasant affair. To you
my esteemed colleagues, I remain grateful for your love and camaraderie we
shared while it lasted.”
He prayed that God in His infinite
wisdom avails his successor and indeed the house of all human sagacity in the
task of accentuating the core ideals of the Legislature as a partner in
governance, for a better society.
Rt Hon Ochei was sworn in as the
Speaker on June 6, 2011
