Delta State has recorded another milestone in organised labour as Comrade Wilson Asekutu has emerged the new Chairman of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), Delta State Council, following a smooth and peaceful election held at the 1st Quadrennial Delegates’ Conference in Asaba.


The conference, which took place at the Samuel Dietake Multipurpose Event Hall, saw Comrade Asekutu elected unopposed, a development widely applauded by delegates as a demonstration of unity, maturity and strong democratic values within the Congress.


Representing the TUC President General, Comrade Festus Osifo, Comrade Oluchi-Favour Ubani commended the Delta State Council for a seamless transition. She described the peaceful process as a reflection of the Congress’s collective resolve to build a stronger and more resilient labour movement at all levels. She also congratulated the newly elected Executive Committee and prayed for a tenure marked by progress, stability and impactful service to workers across the state.


In his acceptance speech, Comrade Asekutu expressed gratitude to the delegates for their confidence in his leadership. He pledged to build on the achievements of the outgoing administration, strengthen solidarity among affiliate unions, and champion the rights and welfare of workers in both the public and private sectors.


According to him, his leadership will focus on addressing critical issues affecting Delta workers, including rising cost of living, casualisation, job insecurity, fair wages, and the need for improved workplace safety and conditions.


Comrade Asekutu, a seasoned labour leader from Tsekelewu in Egbema Kingdom, currently served as the PENGASSAN Warri Zonal Secretary, also a member of both PENGASSAN Central Working Committee and National Executive Council. He brings years of experience, including senior-level engagement in the oil and gas industry.


Delta workers and labour affiliates across the state have expressed optimism that the new leadership will consolidate on existing gains and deliver a more robust and responsive labour front.


Delta Event TV News will continue to monitor developments within the Congress and provide updates as the new executive begins its tenure.
