Hon Tidi has resumed office for a second term as the executive chairman of Warri South Local Government Area, after his swearing-in ceremony on Monday at the Delta state capital, Asaba.
Hon Tidi who had a landslide victory under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the March 6th 2021, Delta State Local Government Election, was among the 25 Chairmen that took the oath of office before Governor Okowa, on Monday 8th March 2021.
Dr Tidi, as the records shows, has been one of the most outstanding Chairmen in Delta State, and it was not a surprise to see the mammoth crowd that welcomed him back to the Warri South Local Government Secretariat on Tuesday 9th March 2021.
He was received by the Head, Personnel Management of Warri South LGA Dr.(Mrs) Minne Igbude who thereafter, handed over to him, as the Chairman.
Dr Tidi at the inauguration ceremony, was charged by Governor Okowa to continue his good works, and further formulate more policies and programmes that would continue to impact positively on the socio-economic well-being of rural people, just like he has done in his first term. The annual Warri Economic Summit which is a brain child of the Dr. Tidi-led administration, is a perfect example of such initiatives.
The governor speaking to other chairmen, also harped on the need for them to embrace inclusive governance by working as a team, adding that the chairmen should ensure that they included their vice-chairmen and other members of the executive and the legislative arm in the decision-making process.
Responding on behalf of the chairmen and vice-chairmen, Chairman of Ndokwa East Local Government Area, Mr Juan Governor, expressed appreciation to the governor and leaders of the PDP in the state for the opportunity given to them to serve at the grassroots level of governance.
He commended the electorate in the various local government areas for endorsing their candidature through the electoral mandate given to them at the polls, and assured that they would not betray the confidence reposed in them.
The inauguration ceremony was attended by the wife of the governor, Dame Edith Okowa; the Deputy Governor, Mr Kingsley Otuaro and other top government functionaries.
Hon Michael Tidi thanked the Governor, people of Warri South and Staff of the Local Government as he prepares for the task ahead.
