NEWS: Niger Delta Youths Praise Akpabio, Ogiame Atuwatse III, Others ....Hit Out At Idjerhe Monarch, Dissident Groups
“The Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio has done his work well.”
Niger Delta youths on Sunday lauded the leadership qualities of
the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio, describing him
as “a man of high integrity and principles”.
The stance of the youths was articulated by the President of the
group Coalition of Progressive Niger Delta Youths (CPNDY), Mr. Chukwuma
Nwabueze.
The youths who met in Warri applauded Akpabio for enhancing
government effectiveness and transparency in the oil rich region.
“The Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio has
done his work well.”
In a statement in Warri, the youths advised the Coordinator of
Wailing Women of the Niger Delta (WWND), Odighonin Adienbo and the National
President of Niger Delta Elders’ Forum, Chief Tonye Ogbogbuya to tame their
appetite for falsehood against Akpabio.
The youths described the recent comments of Ovie of Idjerhe,
Monday Arthur Whiskey, Adienbo and Ogbogbuya on Buhari and Akpabio as
distasteful and provocative.
The youths said Whiskey, Adienbo and Ogbogbula were mercenaries
hired by some corrupt politicians and contractors to destabilize the region.
"The Ovie of Idjerhe Kingdom, Adienbo and Ogbogbuya are officious
people. They can’t be popular through baseless attacks on Buhari and Akpabio."
The statement commended Akpabio for cleaning up the mess in the
Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) and working in the best interests of
the country.
The youths said even the blind can see the impressive achievements of the Federal Government in the oil rich region.
The statement underscored the worst personality traits of a king
and the refusal of Whiskey, Adienbo and Ogbogbuya to observe the rules of
objectivity.
Specifically, the youths praised Olu of Warri Kingdom, Ogiame
Atuwatse III for his patriotism, leadership style and tactful politesse.
They urged Whiskey and his sponsors to emulate the Warri monarch
on strategic communication, tactful presentation and wisdom.
The Olu of Warri Kingdom, Ogiame Atuwatse 111 recently drew
Buhari’s attention to the under-utilisation of the four ports in Warri, Koko,
Sapele, and Burutu, reconstitution of the NDDC board, immortalising the first
Minister of Finance of the country, Festus Okotie-Eboh, and resuscitation of
the Ogidigben EPZ project.
The youths also underscored personal integrity, sincerity of
Akpabio, culture of accountability and the massive steps that have been taken.
