Ambassador Ese Joshua Emadifie, the Senior Special Assistant to the Delta State Governor on Media and Director General of the “Connecting with Vulnerable Deltans through Traditional and ultramodern Media Channels” initiative, has extended his philanthropic efforts to the Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camp in Okuama, Ewu- Urhobo, Ughelli South Local Government Area of Delta State.
During the visit, Amb. Emadifie and his crew presented educational accoutrements and cartons of varied biscuits to the camp’s residers.
While addressing the camp, he stated the purpose of their visit, saying. “We’ve come then with what we call ‘traditional media representation’ to interact with you, understand your pains and requirements, and relay them to the governor.

“The purpose of our coming here is not only to give educational materials but also to empower women through skill accession programs, in alignment with the MORE Agenda of our governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori,” he explained.
Emphasizing the governor’s influence on their activities, he added, “We want to emulate the governor of Delta State, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori. Everything we do here reflects who the governor is; the particulars we presented, the commission enterprise, and the stationeries are all from him.”
Emadifie also took a moment to acknowledge the potentials of the youths in the camp, stating, “There are certain effects people take for granted, but I believe that some of the children here have the potentials to represent Nigeria in football. I want the governor to know that the people then are happy.”
Speaking further on the goals of his initiative, he said, “As Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Media, I’ve decided to use traditional media channels. Our objective is to reach out to the three senatorial districts, hear to the people, and give them a sense of belonging and hope that the Sheriff Administration is for all.”
While receiving the items on behalf of the bemeficiaries, Mr. Abraham Ogbodo, expressed his deep gratefulness, saying “I feel so good because this gesture reflects the idea that humanity transcends race, race, religion, and terrain”.
“When people are in woefully circumstances, the world ought to unite to help them because tragedy is felt the same way across the board,” Ogbodo said.
Ogbodo, who is also a former editor of The Guardian Newspaper, further reflected, “When situations like this arise, the strong should work their strength to help the weak. That’s how society ought to serve — not with the strong beating down the weak.”
“I appreciate the support we got today, but the ultimate thing is to get our people back to their ancestral spreads. Although it is not an automatic process, the government is working on it.”
He concluded by admitting the broader impact of the visit.” What has happened at the moment is that some people are attending to our physiological requirements, but there are other requirements as well, similar as cerebral boosting and emotional stability. That’s what Ambassador Emadifie has come to give for us.”
