“As we prepare to usher in year 2022, I pray that it would be a year of a new positive beginning for the Niger Delta Region, where all abandoned projects would be completed and commissioned for the use of the people and where a new development road map would equally be charted for the region through the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) and the Niger Delta Ministry,” he added.
The Minister stated this in a Christmas message where he charged Christians to see the birth of Jesus Christ as a period to demonstrate love, peace and unity among Nigerians, irrespective of religious, political and regional convictions.
Calling on Nigerians to continue to pray for their leaders at all levels of governance for them to succeed in office, the statement endorsed by his Chief Press Secretary, Jackson Udom, quoted the Minister as saying,”
Let me congratulate the Christian faithful and the people of the Niger Delta Region on this year’s Christmas celebration. Let me also use this period of the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ to remind all Christians on the need to exhibit all the qualities of Jesus Christ, which are unity, peace and love.”
He further stated, “let me specifically thank my brothers and sisters in the Niger Delta Region for the peace we have continued to enjoy in the region and by extension Nigeria. It is my prayer during this yuletide period and the coming new year, 2022, that we will continue to maintain this peace and remain solid behind President Muhammadu Buhari, who is doing all within his power to develop the region.”
