The recent statements credited to Mr. Ossai Ovie Success have sparked widespread outrage and deep embarrassment, particularly among stakeholders and loyal supporters of the Delta State Government. Ossai’s utterances, lacking in decorum and respect, represent a gross violation of the values of public service and responsible communication.
As a supposed aide to the Governor, Ossai is expected to demonstrate high standards of conduct and communication, aligning with the administration’s core principles of humility, tolerance, and diplomacy. Instead, his comments have cast a dark shadow over the government’s reputation, causing unnecessary distractions from the developmental agenda of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori.
Many Deltans and political observers have expressed dismay at what they describe as reckless and divisive rhetoric. Such behavior, unbecoming of a public official, not only undermines the credibility of the state government but also paints a negative picture of the leadership’s internal discipline and communication structure.
Governor Oborevwori, known for his calm disposition and people first approach, must not allow such acts of indiscretion to fester within his inner circle. The dignity of his office demands swift and decisive action to address any misconduct that threatens the integrity of his administration.
There is a growing call from concerned citizens and party faithful for the immediate suspension of Ossai to restore public confidence and send a clear message that impunity will not be tolerated. This would serve as both a disciplinary measure and a deterrent to others within the system.
Leadership is about responsibility, and those privileged to serve must be held accountable for their words and actions. The time to act is now, for the sake of decorum, discipline, and the collective image of the Delta State Government
