2023: Delta govt cautions against distraction in governance

Delta Government has urged political appointees and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) officials to eschew acts capable of distracting governance in the state.

Specifically, the government cautioned politicians to be mindful of their attitudes in consultations and issues relating to 2023 general elections.

A statement by the Senior Political Adviser to the Governor, Chief Funkekeme Solomon, on Monday in Asaba, stated that such actions of the politicians were not just premature, but capable of undermining the administration’s resolve of bequeathing a Stronger Delta to the people.

It said that Gov. Ifeanyi Okowa was not averse to anyone pursuing an ambition but insisted that such persons must stop dropping his name in the process.

The government cautioned that all who engaged in political consultations must ensure that their conducts did not interfere with their official responsibilities in a manner that could weaken governance.

It announced that the Office of the Senior Political Adviser had been mandated to monitor the activities of all officials in the administration to ensure compliance with the directive.

The statement reads:”It has come to the notice of the Governor that some officials of our party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and in particular, some members in position of responsibility in this administration, have begun consultations on their political ambitions, especially for 2023 general elections.

“Reports indicate that some of these persons have even resorted to dropping the name of the Governor in these consultations thereby portraying him as teleguiding the emerging processes.

‘This is quite unfortunate as the actions of these persons could cause stampede and needless tension in the political space.

“While His Excellency, the Governor, is not averse to anyone pursuing an ambition, it becomes out of place when such actions are commencing barely nine (9) months into the second term of his administration.

“Such premature politicking is capable of undermining the unity of purpose of this administration and distracting it from the set vision of bequeathing a Stronger Delta to the people of Delta State.

“In view of the foregoing, the Governor has directed that members of Government, who are engaged in these actions under reference, should exercise caution.

“They should ensure that their conduct does not interfere with their official responsibilities in a manner that can weaken governance.

“Consequently, I am to state that appropriate sanctions await anyone whose aspirations become obstructive of or distractive to Government.

“In this connection, the Office of the Senior Political Adviser to the Governor has been mandated to monitor the activities of all officials of the present administration to ensure compliance with the Governor’s directive.”

This issue was addressed by the UTME board, and as always, before the commencement of JAMB registration, the board always share the date for the beginning of registration and closing date too.

The JAMB exam official website has provided complete information about the closing date for purchasing the

The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board announced the following information.

Here are Important JAMB Information

• JAMB has disclosed that the closing date for JAMB registration is 17th of February 2020.

During the Examination, all candidates should take note, that the JAMB board does not allow candidates to use wristwatches and pens on the examination. Therefore, it’s better to leave them outside if you don’t want to get involved in troubles or get your result canceled.

JAMB Closing Date 2020.

I would also love to say it here again, that the closing date for JAMB registration is 17th of February, 2020. However, banish the thought of registering late, because your center may have filled up, and you have to spend unnecessary money on transport and stress.

Please don’t waste your time, waiting to register on the JAMB registration closing date! It’s better you do it now that late. Although we can’t rule out the fact that the 2020 UTME registration deadline may be extended, it is better not to play with your academic future.

However, the closing date for registration and buying of JAMB form may be extended, but till then, the 17th of February, is still the official JAMB registration closing date for 2020.
