*DELTA* — Dr. Charles Olisa, KSM, JP, Commissioner representing the Ndokwa Ethnic Nationality on the Governing Board of the Delta State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission, DESOPADEC, carried out a series of official engagements across Ndokwa East LGA and Asaba on May 2026.
*Project Inspection in Ndokwa East*
Dr. Olisa inspected several ongoing DESOPADEC projects in his mandate area, including the construction of an Assembly Hall at Oduga Secondary School, Ushie, Ndokwa East LGA.
Speaking to residents and community leaders at the sites, he assured them that all ongoing projects under the Ndokwa Ethnic Nationality mandate would be completed “soonest.” He added that new, high-impact projects would soon be deployed across all DESOPADEC mandate communities.
He commended the people of Ndokwa for their support for the board led by Olorogun Barr. John Nani, with Chief Surv. Festus Ochonogor as Managing Director/CEO. “The board remains committed to delivering significant, positive, and impactful projects in all DESOPADEC mandate communities, including Ndokwa Ethnic Nationality,” he said.
Dr. Olisa noted that DESOPADEC’s project delivery aligns with the MORE Agenda of the Delta State Government under Governor Rt. Hon. Elder Sheriff Oborevwori. He cited the recent commissioning of the ultramodern Aboh Police Station, Ndokwa East LGA, by the governor on May 6, 2026, as evidence of the commission’s commitment.
