"You Have Failed The Itsekiri People" Olu Of Warri Tell Gej Bluntly by asamaigho(m): 6:39pm On Mar 12, 2015 |
You’ve Failed My People, Warri Monarch Tells Jonathan …Militants In Verbal Battle Before Meeting With President •Tompolo, Emami in verbal battle before meeting with President Faced by the grim prospect of losing the support of the Itsekiri of Delta State in this month’s election, President Goodluck Jonathan has bowed to pressure to perform the groundbreaking of the $16bn Delta Gas City project at Ogidigben in the Warri South West Local Government Area of the State, before the poll. The deal was struck at separate meetings he held with the paramount ruler of the Itsekiri, Olu of Warri, Ogiame Atuwatse II and other Itsekiri leaders, as well as with former militant leader, Government Ekpemupolo (aka Tompolo) and Ayirimi Emami (aka Akulagba), at the Government House, Asaba on Friday night. Sources at the meetings said the President told Ayiri and Tompolo that “he was coming to Warri in two weeks to perform the groundbreaking ceremony and asked them to go and settle their differences in the interest of peace and development of the area. “Consequently, everybody has agreed in principle to allow the groundbreaking ceremony to take place . We are expecting the ceremony to come up in two weeks time. The president has asked the governor and NNPC to work towards that date.” The Itsekiri and the Ijaw are laying claim to the project site. Threats by Tompolo and his Ijaw kinsmen to unleash mayhem on the area forced the President to call off the first attempt to perform the ceremony last November. Stunned by the President’s action,the Itsekiri resolved to vote massively against him in the president election. Meanwhile, a source at the meeting between the President and Itsekiri leaders said the Itsekiri monarch “bluntly told the President that he failed the Itsekiri during his tenure” and that he (Olu) could not guarantee his people’s votes for him. The traditional ruler was also said to have told the President that his people even got a better deal from former President Olusegun Obasanjo. “He told the President that as the paramount monarch of the Itsekiri people, he could advise them on how to vote. Nevertheless, he said it was not possible to go back to tell his people to vote for him considering the raw deal they have received from him. “The Ogiame particularly lamented the manner the President aborted the groundbreaking ceremony of the gas project, which was the only benefit his people would have received during his entire six years.” Apparently worried by the tone of the monarch, President Jonathan was said to have requested for a private meeting with Tompolo and the Akulagba – two of the key players in the controversy over ownership of the lands in the area. It was gathered that a pre-meeting between the duo was almost called off due to hot exchange of words between the Ijaw and Itsekiri leaders, who bickered over the ownership of the contentious site of the project. “Although Tompolo was willing to concede that the 2,800 hectares site of the gas project is owned exclusively by Itsekiri, he wanted an assurance from Akulagba that the site of the deep sea port would be conceded to the Ijaws of Gbaramatu. “Ayiri insisted that all the land, including where some Gbaramatu communities are located is owned by the Itsekiri, insisting that he would not be cowed by threat of war or violence to concede his kinsmen’s property for peace.” In spite of the latest development, it was gathered that Emami is planning to go to court if the deep sea port is conceded to the Ijaws as it is being proposed by the President and the Delta State Government. “From what we have gathered, he has concluded plans to challenge the Ijaw’s claim to the land, particularly Ikpokpo and other communities alleged annexed by the Ijaws during the Ijaw/Itsekiri crisis.” http://www.thegazellenews.com/2015/03/01/youve-failed-my-people-warri-monarch-tells-jonathan-militants-in-verbal-battle-before-meeting-with-president/ 1 Like 1 Share |

asamaigho: Compare the contents of the write up and the subject heading and spew thrash again - allegedly is not irrefutable.......Journalism 101. Do you now see that your zero comprehension and hollow brain condemns you. Is it not the same Delta state that got a Cargo Airport, Federal University and other institutions sited at Asaba? Who do you think your phony gazzellenews website would deceive? If you have any iota of sense you will realise that all infighting for claim on the gas project stopped for only one reason-GEJ'S GROUNDBREAKING ON ANY LAND (EITHER URHROBO OR IJAW OR ISOKO OR ITSEKIRI ) IS PREFERABLE THAN BUHARI'S OUTRIGHT CANCELLATION. Do you think that joke Emerhor stands a chance in even a chancellorship election? Yeah I thought so. APC manufacturing stories and making a fool of themselves daily has made the writing on the wall lucid..........GEJ'19. |

The president is playing a clanish politics, he is seen as an IJAW LEADER RATHER THAN A NIGERIAN PRESIDENT.,and dat is bad for d nation, I don't see any reason on God's earth why d IJAWS will want to stop a project sited in WHOLLY ITSEKIRI LAND. 4 Likes |

asamaigho: Your dementia afflicted brain needs an overhaul. You said the federal university of Asaba was built by Obasanjo. Liar! Liars like your kind in civilised society should be horsewhipped and shot in the mouth at dawn. For the record I said CARGO Airport not the Uduaghan commisioned State owned Asaba airport along Asaba- Opanam road,get that into the cask you call a skull. Go and read newspapers (and I dont mean sensational headlines like the tabloid thrash you quoted here),watch news and find out how long it has taken for decision on location to be agreed on. Most of all go and get comprehension. If your life is so pathetic and filled with ignorance do the whole world a favour and do yourself in. Nigeria is a better place without your sort around. Buzz off and don't quote me again with your pathetic unfounded lies. Illiterate fraud! |

I was wondering the sudden wealth of Ayiri and how come he remained unknown for a long while. I guess he benefits from the illegal contract Jonathan awards ex-militants. |

asamaigho: See this uneducated nitwit. You say they are no achievements I list some for you. So what you have issue now is he is buliding the cargo airport of Delta state in the vicinity of the present one as a terminal? You deserve public flogging for being stupid and a hater of progress. List any cargo terminal or airport in Nigeria prior to Goodluck's administration....... https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110403093120AAh6VPp You are the same dingbat that goofed on Johnathan's achievements in a state you obviously haven't been to or even if you are there you are too irrelevant to know any better. Pathetic! Kindly refrain from quoting me I detest having any semblance of conversation with beings like you. |
