We Are Not After Anyone—Delta Majority Leader

By Njamanze Fidel

The Delta State House of Assembly has again refuted allegation in certain quarters of witch-hunting anyone as a result of the oversight function on the Independent Power Project, IPP.

In a statement issued on Sunday in Asaba by the House Leader, Hon. Tim Owhefere, the House expressed strict reliance on the Rule of Law and most importantly the Right to Fair Hearing.

According to the statement, what the House did was merely an oversight function in line with constitutional provision.

“It was never intended as a probe initiative against any individual” Owhefere who doubles as the Chairman, House Committee on Information said.

The statement went further to reaffirm the commitment and resolve of the House to be fair and just in all matters of concern to Deltans.
