Hon. Commissioner for Information: Patrick Ukah

ASABA—Delta State Government has engaged a consultant to carry out a feasibility study on Monorail Transit System in Asaba, the state capital, as it restated its resolve to sell the Independent Power Plant, IPP, project in Oghara, Ethiope West Local Government Area of the state. It also approved the appointment of HRM Ogiame Ikenwoli as the Olu of Warri Kingdom, HRM Nwaolise Okwuka I as the Obi of Issele-Mkpetime in Aniocha North Local Government Area and HRM Agbaovwe Afugbeya Oyise II, as the Odion R’Ode of Uwheru Kingdom in Ughelli North Local Government Area. Briefing newsmen after the State Executive Council meeting chaired by the Deputy Governor, Mr. Kingsley Utuaro, yesterday, the Commissioner for Information, Mr. Patrick Ukah, said that the state government plans to undertake a study on the
viability of mono-rail transit system in Asaba and fit it into the Asaba Development Master plan. Ukah said the state government had decided to plan ahead because of the increasing population in Asaba in order to boost transportation. On the appointment of four traditional rulers, Ukah said the council amended the Bendel State Legal Notice, BSLN 88 of 1979 regulating the customary law of succession to the traditional rulers title of the Senior Odion of Uwheru clan. Explaining the appointments of the traditional rulers, the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Mr Bright Edejevwo, said that the approval was part of the processes for the formal recognition of the monarchs. According to him, the people had written to the state government officially presenting Prince Ikenwoli as the successor to the throne following the demise of the former Olu, Ogiame Atuwase II, last year. He told newsmen that the people of the kingdom had fulfilled all the traditional rites to install the new Olu, stressing that there were no crises during the coronation ceremonies. On the proposed sale of the IPP in Oghara, the Commissioner for Energy, Mr Newworld Safugha, said that the state government was looking into the process of completing the sale as recommended by the last administration.
