Nothing Political With Tambuwal, Wike’s Visit To Delta State – Okowa

Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State has said the visit of Governor Aminu Tambuwal and Governor Nyesom Wike to his state was not political.

Tambuwal and Wike last week visited Delta state for the inaugural youths empowerment entrepreneurship exhibition under the state government’s Skills Training and Entrepreneurship Programme and Youth Agricultural Entrepreneurship Programme, and the opening of roads in Asaba.

Okowa said Tambuwal was in the state to witness the achievement his administration had recorded in the area of youth entrepreneurship in the state.

He said: “There’s no political undertone to the visit of governors Tambuwal and Wike to Asaba last week. I have read all manner of headlines as regard the visit.

“This is the third time Tambuwal will be visiting the state.

“He (Tambuwal) was here during my daughter ’s wedding. He visited again during the state’s economic summit.

“He has been my close friend. If I had any reason to hold political meeting with him, it could have been held over there in Abuja.

“He has promised to send representatives to study our YAGEP and STEP’s programmes.”
