Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori has instructed Mr. Charles Aniagwu, the State Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads), to assume oversight of the State Ministry of Information.
In accordance with the directive, Aniagwu is anticipated to return to work on Monday, succeeding Dr. Ifeanyi Osuoza as the information commissioner. Aniagwu will be in charge of the information and works (rural roads) ministries.
He said, “He is overseeing the two ministries; he is not leaving as Commissioner of Works in charge of rural roads”, a dependable source close to Government House.
According to the source, the governor wanted to change the State government’s public relations apparatus, which is why he issued the command.
From 2015 until 2019, Aniagwu was the Chief Press Secretary to Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, the state’s most recent governor. From 2019 to 2023, he was the administration’s Commissioner for Information.
