The Member representing Ughelli North, Ughelli South and Udu Federal Constituency, Hon. Francis Waive, has congratulated Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, on his emergence as Governor of the Year 2025 by Leadership Newspapers.
Waive spoke on Thursday at the 18th Leadership Annual Conference and Awards held at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, Abuja, where the governor was honoured for what he described as an outstanding performance in office.
Describing the award as well-deserved, the federal lawmaker said Governor Oborevwori had distinguished himself as “the most performing governor in the country today,” noting that his achievements had surpassed those of previous administrations in the state.
He praised the governor’s courage, vision and passion for governance, stressing that his developmental footprints were evident across Delta State. According to Waive, the legacies being built by the Oborevwori administration would endure beyond the present generation.
“The governor defines the next level every time. When you think he has defined it, he redefines it to a higher level,” Waive said, adding that Deltans have “never had it so good.”
Waive also disclosed that Governor Oborevwori is scheduled to receive another honour from New Telegraph in Lagos, where he will be named Governor of the Year. He recalled that the governor had recently been recognised by Vanguard Newspapers, describing the awards as further evidence of national acknowledgment of his leadership.
He expressed confidence that such recognition would continue as long as the governor sustains his developmental strides, while praying for God’s protection and strength upon him.
Waive maintained that Deltans remain the ultimate beneficiaries of the administration’s people-oriented policies and impactful leadership.
