Governor Oborevwori Moves To Boost Farming, Investment With Power, Roads

Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, says his administration will continue to support genuine farmers and private investors with infrastructure, improved power supply and other incentives to boost the state’s economy.

Oborevwori stated this on Saturday during an inspection of Tatcha Farms in Okuloho, Okpe Local Government Area, as well as Amity Global Farms and Manroy Livestock Farms in Ohorhe 1, Uvwie Local Government Area.

The governor said government support would not always come through direct funding but through infrastructure and an enabling environment for businesses to grow.

He added that the state’s recent economic and investment summit was designed to showcase investment opportunities, particularly in agriculture, to local and international investors.

Oborevwori disclosed that the state’s economic team had been directed to inspect farms and businesses to identify their challenges and assess their expansion potential.

He also announced that a 33kV electricity line had been awarded while ongoing road projects would improve access to farming communities and markets across the state.
