Oborevwori Empowers Delta Football Teams with Four New Buses
Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, has donated four brand-new buses to Warri Wolves and Delta Queens Football Clubs to support their performance in both domestic and international competitions.
Each team received a Toyota Coaster bus and a Toyota Hiace bus, aimed at solving the logistical challenges caused by aging vehicles previously used by the clubs.
Governor Oborevwori said the donation was inspired by recent reports of travel difficulties faced by the teams due to vehicle breakdowns. He noted that providing safe, reliable, and comfortable transportation is a key part of his administration’s broader commitment to sports development in the state.
“Delta State continues to excel in sports across Nigeria, but we must ensure our players are properly motivated to do even better,” the governor said.
“I was recently informed that one of the teams encountered problems on the road due to the condition of their old vehicle. I immediately ordered the purchase of two Coaster buses and two Hiace buses—one set for Warri Wolves and the other for Delta Queens.”
He urged players and officials to remain committed and focused, emphasizing that the state government consistently rewards excellence.
“This is to encourage you. When you win matches and medals, we pay your bonuses without delay. Keep striving, keep winning, and keep making Delta proud,” Oborevwori added.
Head Coach Samson Keshi and Team Captain Owoeye Temitope expressed their gratitude, praising the governor for the unprecedented support. They noted it was the first time such a gesture had been made and pledged to work even harder to bring glory to the state.
With both clubs currently active in Nigeria’s top football leagues, the new buses are expected to significantly improve team logistics, enhance morale, and boost performance. The move further cements Delta’s position as Nigeria’s leading state in sports development and achievement.
