NDDC MD/CEO Dr. Sam Ogbuku Adds Another Milestone to His Many Notable Achievements with NDDC New Fire Station

Image
When the new firefighting truck rolled into the NDDC headquarters in Port Harcourt last week, it looked out of place among the usual fleet of official vehicles. But for staff and visitors who know the risks of working in a busy, high-traffic complex, the sight felt less like ceremony and more like common sense. The truck, handed over to the Department of Health, Safety and Environment, is the latest practical move by Managing Director and CEO Dr. Samuel Ogbuku to make safety a visible part of the commission’s work. Represented at the event by Director of Administration and Human Resources Kelechi Nwelue, Ogbuku said the goal is simple: the NDDC should be able to protect its own premises and respond quickly when fire threatens nearby communities. It’s a small story in hardware terms, but it fits a larger pattern. Since taking charge, Ogbuku has been pushing the idea that development is not only about roads and scholarships—it’s about protecting lives and making sure systems actually wor...

Politics Now...Ned Nwoko Speaks on Need for Continuity

Image
DELTA NORTH— Senator Ned Nwoko says the future of Delta North depends less on political slogans and more on steady, unbroken service. Speaking on his vision for the district, he framed representation as a duty carried into every debate, motion, and decision at the National Assembly.  “My job is to carry the aspirations, hopes, and future of Delta North into every room where policy is shaped,” Nwoko said. For him, each intervention at the Senate is measured by one standard: does it deliver tangible progress for Anioma people? That standard, he explained, has guided his work since assuming office. From pushing for the creation of Anioma State to sponsoring bills and interventions in youth empowerment, infrastructure, education, healthcare, and agriculture, the senator insists the mission has never shifted.  “Effective representation means more than speaking. It means making sure projects start, continue, and finish in the communities that need them,” he said. According to Nwoko,...

Guests talk about rooms that feel refined, service that pays attention, and spaces that ...

Politics Now....PRIMATE AYODELE SPEAKS ON OYO ELECTION

Image
    • By Mike Cerutti publisher Richlist Int. Primate Elijah Ayodele has publicly dared former Minister of Power, Bayo Adelabu, to win the Oyo State governorship election without consulting him. The cleric made the statement in a virile video that has been circulating online, where he spoke directly to Adelabu and his political ambitions.

The primate recalled that he had previously given Adelabu prophetic guidance ahead of past elections, which he claimed the politician disregarded to his detriment.
