“Delta State in the foreseeable future should be energy sufficient to support domestic, household demands and for industrial use,” he said.
Uduaghan added that the state government involvement in the Benin Electricity Distribution Company would boost power supply to the rural areas which will improve the economy of these areas.
He said the state’s power plant would produce between 120 and 150 megawatts of electricity.
Uduaghan noted that rumour mongering, propaganda and destructive criticism were the worst of distractions any leader could suffer as such would create internal dissension, internal rivalry and insurrection.
He observed that the most harmful rumours emanated from those closest to the leader and decried the use of social media for rumour mongering and propaganda.
