EFFURUN/Delta State: Delta Trust Mortgage Bank is experiencing a significant transformation following the appointment of Hon. Jude Ogbimi as its Chairman. This change in leadership has brought renewed visibility and ambition to the bank, which had previously operated with little public recognition.
Hon. Ogbimi, accompanied by the bank’s Executive Director, Barrister Joshua Muhwen, recently conducted visits to the Chairmen of Okpe and Uvwie Local Government Areas. The purpose of these visits was to inform the local governments about the bank’s enhanced role and to encourage them to leverage the autonomy recently granted to them by partnering with Delta Trust Mortgage Bank.
Ogbimi emphasized the importance of this collaboration for infrastructural development within the councils. He highlighted the bank’s offerings, including National Housing Fund (NHF) loans and Retirement Savings Accounts (RSA), which are aimed at benefiting civil servants, councillors, and local residents.
“These initiatives are designed to align with His Excellency’s MORE Agenda, promoting meaningful development and creating opportunities across the state,” Ogbimi stated. He drew attention to a successful model already established in Burutu Local Government Area, which he hopes to replicate throughout the state.
Under Ogbimi’s leadership, the board’s vision is to make Delta Trust Mortgage Bank a prominent financial institution throughout Delta State. He stressed that the bank is capitalizing on extensive opportunities available in the market, being the only state-owned mortgage bank in the South-South and South-East regions.
“It is time to act the talk,” Ogbimi declared. “For your mortgage needs, think Delta Trust.”
Ogbimi’s commitment to this new phase is underscored by his background as a professional forensic accountant, businessman, and politician. Known for his vibrant and eloquent tenure as the representative of Isoko North in the Delta State House of Assembly, Ogbimi is poised to bring the same energy and dedication to his role at Delta Trust Mortgage Bank.
With these strategic moves, Delta Trust Mortgage Bank is set to enhance its presence and impact, addressing the mortgage needs of residents and contributing to the broader developmental goals of the state.
