Delta State Deputy Governor, Sir Monday Onyeme, Thursday, called on youths to maintain peace and obey constituted authorities in all their activities.
Sir Onyeme gave the charge while inaugurating the President-General and members of Nsukwa Youth Development Association (NYDA) at Nsukwa, Aniocha South Local Government Area of the State.
“As youths, do things together, and love yourselves. Be patriotic, support the government of Delta State, support your King and all constituted authorities; when you are peaceful in whatever you do, you will achieve greater results,” the deputy governor said.
The deputy governor urged the executive to work as a team for the betterment of the kingdom, while being patriotic in their actions in order to attract development to the community.
He advised them to resolve issues amicably and channel any grievance to the appropriate authority for resolution rather than take laws into their hands.
Sir Onyeme urged them to support the Oborevwori administration and the leadership of Nsukwa clan, noting that no form of development could take place in an atmosphere of violence, hence they should maintain peace at all times.
He commended the President General and members of the Nsukwa Youth Development Association for the peaceful conduct of the election, saying the election model could be adopted by other communities.
The deputy governor assured that their demands would be channeled to the appropriate government agencies for actions, adding that the demands were genuine.
The President-General, Nsukwa Youth Development Association, Mr Harrison Opia in his remark, said his executive would work with the Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s administration to promote the more agenda.
He said in line with the MORE Agenda of peace and security, an anti cult and drug outfit would be established in Nsukwa kingdom and solicited for vehicles and accessories to help curb insecurity and drug related offences.
Mr Opia appealed to the state government to encourage oil companies to come and invest to harness the huge oil resources in the kingdom among other demands.
