Comrade Enujeke explained that six of the buses are designated for the Chairmen of the six ethnic nationalities in Delta State, while the remaining two are assigned to the offices of the State Chairman and Secretary, respectively. He also disclosed that all vehicles have been properly registered, and each has been allocated ₦200,000 for fueling purposes.

Highlighting the gesture as the second phase of the organization’s capacity-building program, Enujeke noted that the first phase involved the empowerment of hundreds of indigent persons from oil- and gas-bearing communities through the respective ethnic Chairmen. He further revealed that the third phase—renovation of the HOSTCOM National Secretariat—is currently ongoing and nearing completion.

Reflecting on the progress made under Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s MORE Agenda, Enujeke stated that this initiative aligns with the vision of sustainable development and stands as a legacy of his administration.

He expressed profound gratitude to Governor Oborevwori for approving the funds and for his consistent fatherly support. He also acknowledged former Governor Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa and the Delta State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission (DESOPADEC) Management for their instrumental roles in making the project a reality.

Comrade Enujeke concluded by reaffirming his commitment to continued mobilization and advocacy for the welfare of residents in oil- and gas-producing communities across the state.
in line with the MORE AGENDA of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori.

Speaking on behalf of the recipients, Chief Andrew Agoyo, Chairman of the Urhobo Ethnic Nationality in HOSTCOM, praised the initiative and expressed gratitude for the recognition and inclusion of the six ethnic nationalities in the logistics upgrade.

“This gesture by our State Chairman has not only empowered us but also reaffirmed that this administration is committed to equity and transparency. On behalf of my fellow ethnic nationality Chairmen, I say thank you for this landmark effort. It will go a long way in enhancing our field operations, unity, and coordination,” Chief Agoyo stated.

In a heartfelt vote of thanks, Comrade Joseph Lamienghan, Secretary of Delta State HOSTCOM, lauded the leadership of Comrade Enujeke for his strategic approach to capacity development within the body.

 “Today is a remarkable day in the history of Delta State HOSTCOM. The commissioning of these vehicles is a clear demonstration of purposeful leadership. We sincerely thank Governor Oborevwori, former Governor Okowa, and the DESOPADEC team for their unwavering support. We also thank our Chairman, Comrade Enujeke, for his visionary leadership, dexterity  and unvawary focus .The journey continues, and we remain committed to building a stronger, united, and a  happier HOSTCOM,” Lamienghan remarked

PTI Defends Its Reputation Against Misleading Sahara Media Report By Wilson Macaulay Effurun, Delta State July 12 2025 The Management of the prestigious Petroleum Training Institute (PTI), Effurun, has vehemently refuted a sensational and malicious report published by Sahara Reporters on July 10, 2025, which alleged that students of the foremost oil and gas institution study in “flooded classrooms and snake-infested hostels” despite a ₦39 billion budget. Describing the publication as “baseless, mischievous, and an orchestrated attempt to malign the integrity of the institution,” PTI Management said the report is not only factually inaccurate but also a deliberate attack on the hard-earned reputation and progress of the institution under its current leadership. In a strongly worded statement issued on Friday, the management declared: > “There are absolutely no flooded classrooms or snake-infested hostels within the Institute. These claims are complete fabrications devoid of any evidence or truth.” Management further challenged Sahara Reporters to produce any verifiable photographic or video proof to substantiate its claims. > “If such conditions exist as alleged, Sahara Reporters should have no difficulty presenting concrete evidence. Until then, their report remains a reckless misrepresentation aimed at misleading the public.” PTI clarified that all its lecture halls, laboratories, workshops, and hostels are structurally sound, properly ventilated, electrically powered, and routinely maintained. The Institute prides itself on maintaining a safe and conducive academic environment for learning, innovation, and professional development in the oil and gas sector. The management in clear terms described the publication as the work of “unscrupulous elements seeking to sow discord and cast aspersions on the steady infrastructural development PTI has recorded in recent years.” As a center of excellence in petroleum training and manpower development, PTI has, under its current administration, seen remarkable transformation in terms of physical infrastructure, digital modernization, and student welfare programs. The Institute continues to attract local and international recognition for its cutting-edge research and high-impact training curriculum. While assuring stakeholders, parents, and the general public of its unwavering commitment to the safety and welfare of its students, the management reiterated its call for responsible journalism and urged media practitioners to verify facts before rushing to publication. “We remain focused on our mandate and will not be distracted by smear campaigns designed to derail our progress.”
