Governor Okowa who gave thanks to God for the building to have been completed and has now been commissioned, wrote on his verified social media handles thus: “The Press, also known as the 4th Estate, play a crucial role in promoting democracy by keeping the public informed about our actions.

The Delta State Governor then expressed gratitude to the Ministry of Housing, as well as the Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ, for their co-operation and contributions towards ensuring that the Press Centre was completed in time to be commissioned before his administration came to an end.
