"It was obvious that there was no controversy about your winning, you avoided the vices, and showed that you are focused; our youths should find a way to discover their talents, they should stay committed to their dreams and pray to God to achieve it," the Governor said, adding, "there was no issue of sentiments or tribalism, it shows that you are truly, a Nigerian."

"I am happy that the Okpe Kingdom has given you that recognition and you are obviously an ambassador of Delta State and Nigeria; getting to the top may not be easy but, it is also difficult to sustain; you (Efe) have attained that level that a lot of people are looking up to you and it is our prayer and hope that you will rise and keep rising, you have our prayers, be committed," Governor Okowa advised.

He also, urged the BBN winner to be prayerful for God to direct His parts, promising that the state would partner with him on talent discovery of youths.
