Concerned Isoko Network for Peace and Progress Backs Proposed Peaceful Protest By Coalition of Niger Delta Civil Society Organizations (CNDCSOs)
By Wilson MACAULAY
The Concerned Isoko Network for Peace and Progress has declared its unwavering support for the proposed peaceful protest slated to be organized by the Coalition of Niger Delta Civil Society Organizations (CNDCSOs) against the leadership of Dr. Samuel Ogbuku, Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), and Chairman Chiedu Ebie.
In a statement signed by Comr. Ogbaide Felix, President, and Mr. Ejiro Odia, Secretary General, the group criticized the alleged corruption, mismanagement, and neglect of the Niger Delta region under the current NDDC leadership.
They described Dr. Samuel Ogbuku’s tenure as the worst in the commission's history, accusing him of funding divisive ethnic youth groups to defend his failed administration.
The Isoko group called on Isoko women, youths, and students to join the massive peaceful protest scheduled for February 26, 2025, along the Ozoro-Asaba Road and at the NDDC gate in Port Harcourt. They emphasized the urgency of demanding accountability, transparency, and immediate resignation of the NDDC leadership.
“The time for complacency is over. We will not sit idly by while our region suffers. We stand firmly with CNDCSOs in this fight for justice,” the group declared, vowing to resist any counter-efforts to undermine their movement.
The Concerned Isoko Network for Peace and Progress urged all stakeholders to unite in demanding leadership that prioritizes the development and welfare of the Niger Delta.
