The Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly and Chairman of the Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures of Nigeria, Rt. Hon. Emomotimi Dennis Guwor, has congratulated the Governor of Delta State, Rt. Hon. (Elder) Sheriff Oborevwori, on his well-deserved Christian Icon of the Year Award, presented by the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) at its national event in Abuja.

In a congratulatory message issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Nkem Nwaeke, the Speaker, on behalf of his family, the people of Warri South-West Constituency and the Delta State House of Assembly, described the honour as well-deserved and unsurprising, noting that it reflects the Governor’s deep piety, uncommon humility and consistent demonstration of Christian virtues in public service.

According to Guwor, Governor Oborevwori has continued to lead Delta State with the fear of God, a strong sense of equity and a genuine commitment to the welfare of the people, adding that his administration reflects godly and servant leadership.

“By this national recognition from the Body of Christ, you have once again brought pride to Delta State. Your life remains an inspiring example of how faith and governance can work together for the common good,” Guwor stated.

The Speaker further described the award as a resounding affirmation of the Governor’s steadfast walk with God, peaceful disposition and people-centred approach to governance.

“As a House, we have witnessed firsthand your commitment to godliness, good governance, and the unity and progress of Delta State. This award, therefore, is a recognition of your consistent faith-driven leadership,” he added.

Guwor said the leadership and Honourable Members of the Delta State House of Assembly were proud to be associated with the Governor’s achievements.

He prayed that the Almighty God, who had honoured the Governor before men, would continue to endow him with divine wisdom and uncommon strength to fulfil his vision for Deltans and inspire him to greater service to God and humanity.
