Egbema Youths Tells Gov. Okowa To Run A More Inclusive Govt
.....Says It is Egbema Turn To Produce Chairman of Warri North
By Wilson Macaulay .
The youths of Egbema kingdom in Warri North LGA Delta state have pointed out to the executive Governor of Delta state, His Excellency, Senator Dr Arthur Ifeanyi Okowa, that he
need to run a more inclusive government that will carry them along as they are equal stakeholders like other youths in Delta State.
The Youth Group argued in their Statement that from the prism where they stand, it appears to them that the Governor
who assumes he operates a prosperous, equitable and fair Government have indeed sidelined Egbema kingdom, in terms of Development and appointments.
According to the Youths in the kingdom, that held a brainstorm meeting at sapele town, Sapele LGA, Delta state, deliberated on the long marginalization of Egbema kingdom in Warri North. "Egbema people have been deprived of producing the warri North Council chairman since creation of the local Government Area.
They asserted that, Egbema indigenes have been deprived of producing a member at state House of Assembly, we have been neglected in the appointment of commissioner, Delta state oil producing area Development commission (DESOPADEC) Chairman, Federal house of Representative".
The Youths expressed their grieve and alleged that Governor Okowa has intentionally abandoned Egbema kingdom, all through his five years administration.
Comrade Mingo Friday one of the youths leaders who spoke to our correspondent stated that Gov Okowa has almost visited all kingdom's in the state but he refused to visit Egbema kingdom."
Comrade Mingo stressed in his speech that there is no single state project done or ongoing to show in Egbema kingdom.
Mingo who spoke further regrettably added: "His Excellency has awarded and commissioned numerous projects in both his first and second administration, but none was cited in Egbema kingdom.
The Youths group frowned at the Governor's non inclusion of Egbema kingdom in his Developmental agenda.
In the same vein , the Egbema Youths declared their strong intention to produce the next Warri North Council Boss, for the forthcoming Delta 2021 LG poll enmass .
Comrade Silas Toruwei one of the conveners of the youth body reaffirmed the position of the youth Group saying:
"Delta 2021 Poll, Egbema indigene must be Warri North LG, chairman" enough is enough".for us it is a done deal.
