Governor of Delta, Sheriff Oborevwori, has disclosed that states now receive more in federation allocations, adding that there is no point concealing the truth from the people.
Oborevwori spoke on Monday during a ceremony for the construction of the N39.3 billion Otovwodo flyover project in Ughelli north LGA.
He said there is no point concealing the truth from Nigerians, insisting that state governments now have sufficient resources. 
In his words, “I want to tell you something some people do not even know. More money is coming to the states. I am not a governor who will hide it. What am I going to hide it for?
“The money is coming from somewhere. Some people want to hide that there is no money; there is money. Use the money, as we are using it in our state. Use it in your state, so that the people will be very happy.”
Oborevwori said the flyover project marks another milestone in his administration’s efforts to strengthen infrastructure delivery across the state.
On his Facebook page, he wrote ” “Today marked another milestone in our administration as I performed the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of a flyover at Otovwodo junction in Ughelli North LGA.
“Otovwodo junction is a vital link to Warri, Asaba and Patani on the East–West highway, making it one of the busiest roads in this axis.
“When completed, this project, being handled by Julius Berger at a cost of N39.34 billion, is expected to ease vehicular movement and boost trade and commerce, with a completion period of 12 months.
“At the ceremony, I noted that this government is redefining the social contract with our people through compassion, conviction and a culture of accountability in infrastructure delivery.”
