So sometime late last year, and earlier this year, I happened to be in Asaba, Delta state for some personal business, which just wouldn’t wrap up on time. Within this period I was there, I also had cause to travel to several other places across the length and breadth of the state- from Warri, Ughelli, Agbor, Effurun, the University town of Abraka and Asaba itself.

It was a worthwhile experience as Delta unwrapped its allure infront of my very eyes. The place is a beautiful place no doubt. It is perhaps one of the few states in the country that is not a one city state: it has several city-towns within its boundaries, asides the capital.

This diversity gives the residents more latitude in terms of what to do and where to go. I noticed several things while traveling across this heartbeat of the nation and I bring them to you here.

1. In Delta, everybody has ‘boys’= True
This is a veritable source of political patronage- your ability to raise a small rag tag army of youths within the blink of an eye makes you important. ‘If I just give signal now now, you go just see 700 hundred boys assemble for street.’ This is the only way most of the men there get stipends from government- the higher your disruptive tendencies, the higher patronage you get from government or from the political elite.


2. Godfatherism, is everywhere, but in Delta it has been elevated to an art=Untrue and Baseless!
Without a powerful godfather in Delta, you are as good as dead- you won’t get anything from that state, or oil companies, even as an indigene. Not a contract, not a job, no patronage- in short nobody will listen to you. The only way you are trusted with anything reasonable or sensitive is if they know where you are coming from, whose allegiance you bear, which big name you have behind you- ‘ah, this na Ayiri boy o,’ or ‘these na Tompolo boys’ or Clarke boy– that’s the only way whoever is infront of you is awed enough to give you audience.

While you may not work directly for these godfathers, the fact you enjoy their goodwill or can be vouched for, by them, makes life very easy for you as you try to progress in life

3. Delta is the home of the war lord=True in some communities! Terrible OP generalized here
Delta is a fiefdom- every community is controlled by a fief- a local kingpin- without whose word or consent, nothing happens. Nothing happens in that community without his input, knowledge or say so. If Shell wants to embark on a project, he must be settled and appeased, if the government wants to set up a community social responsibility, he must be consulted.

If you want to put up something as simple as billboard, his boys must be in the picture, else by the next morning, you will see it pulled to the ground.

4. Delta is land of the Good, the Bad, the Ugly=Totally untrue, there are alot of beauties in Warri. OP is biased here
Jeez, seeing a fine girl in Warri is like seeing an apparition. So, there a few fine ones, and those ones remain basically indoors, but the vast majority? Damn! While Asaba has some of the most beautiful girls in this country, Warri is the complete opposite. It is a city flush with oil money, so you will expect it to be a confluence of beautiful girls on the lookout for a fast buck, right?

Wrong. Yes, there are a lot of runs girls in that town, but majority of them are ugly. If Delta boys and girls were to act the movie- Good, bad & The Ugly, the good must be the beautiful girls of Asaba, the bad will be represented by the restive boys of the creeks, while the ugly has to be the ugly girls of Warri & Effurun.

5. Ibori’s word is still Law=Yes, the only governor that did something worthwhile for the generality of the populace in Delta State
Eight years after he left office and almost four since he has been doing time in Her Majesty’s jail, the Ibori influence over Delta affairs has never waned. While Uduaghan is the most hated of all Delta Governors, Ibori is the most loved, majorly because of his then propensity to dispense largesse and favors. The jury is yet to be out on Okowa.

From Prison, Ibori still decides what happens in Delta. When he anointed Tony Obuh for Governor last year, it seemed a given that the next occupant of government house would be its former Permanent Secretary. However, when Ibori pulled the plug on this Agbor technocrat’s ambition and swung support to his kinsman, Edevbie, at the PDP primaries at the last minute, it seemed a fait accompli that this Urhobo man would succeed Uduaghan in government house.

Alas, this was a feat too much for even Ibori to pull from prison at such short notice. Though Edevbie came second, Okowa picked the ticket and subsequently went on to win the governorship. The people however compensated Ibori by pushing his daughter into the lower house at the National Assembly.

6. It is our ‘oyel’ mentality waxing stronger=OP is getting stranger here with this assertion! there are alot of able bodied young men that thrived off oil money!!
To the average Niger Deltan, the world should stop moving because oil is drilled from his backyard. Most of the youths there feel they should feed, clothe and live large at the expense of the oil companies, just because they have oil. That is the entitlement mentality that is prevalent around there.

It doesn’t matter whether they have gone to school, it doesn’t matter whether they have a skill, and it doesn’t matter whether they are productive. The mere fact a young man is from an oil producing community means he thinks he must subsist on the bill of the oil company, operating in his neck of the woods. Infact if he sleeps with a LovePeddler, Shell should be able to meet her 10k bill on his behalf. If the oil companies wont do it, well, then the politicians must. This is the sort of mentality that has given rise to restiveness in those parts

7. Asaba is just a ceremonial capital- nothing happens there=Totally true
Asaba is merely the seat of government, for bureaucratic red tape- Warri is where it happens. This town is the nerve centre of the state and is also where the oil companies are- Shell that is. The big deals are close there, the night life is hyper there- in short, Warri is the livewire of the state.

Because the state has several major cities that are equally lively, many Deltans return to these places over the weekend to be with their kith and kin in their won neck of the woods. Asaba then becomes like Abuja- lively during the week, deserted on weekends and only shored up by traders and business men of Onitsha and the girls who cross the bridge on bikes to ply their trade in the capital.

8. In Delta, the Fear of Tompolo is the beginning of wisdom=OP just escaped Yaba left with this comment! There are alot of people who plays politics in the State aside TP.., we do have Ayiri etc.
Yes, there are several strong men in Delta, the Ayiri’s, the Clarkes, Ibori’s and the likes, but the czar of Gbaramatu kingdom tops them all. I mean, if you single handedly installed a chief executive of the largest maritime agency in Africa, are you to be taken lightly?

If you boasted clearly that Delta will be on fire if your candidate does not emerge governor, and then went ahead to bulldoze everybody out of the way and installed him as governor? If after installing this your crony as Governor, you highhandedly installed your cousin as a deputy governor, are you then, not in control of government house and the till of the largest allocation in the country bar Akwa Ibom?

Within the creeks, Tompolo’s word is law and all over Delta, his influence cannot be under estimated, even as he also successfully installed his brother as chairman of his local government council.

If you don’t believe, simply remember when the President wanted to commission the oil & gas free zone there? Remember, the security agencies, the military and state government had given the all clear to the President to come? It only took a phone call from Tompolo to the President for the President to cancel the trip.

What did tomplo say?
‘ Bros eh, if you like yourself ehn, no come here, no near here at all. Boys dey vex, blood dey dia eye. I no fit guarantee your safety o. I don teh you my own.’

The rest is history.

9. In Delta, money talks, bullshit....

=This is totaly untrue as Deltans are known for their moral uprightness and rationality.

---

In conclusion;

OP is delusional for this piece. He never carried out his assignment very well and visited the remote parts of Delta State especially the deep villages where there are local lords, gods etc. In central Warri, the guys careless about how many millions you have in your bank account and don't care! As a matter of fact, the average Warri guy can come out and dress like a billionaire and you wouldn't know the difference if he is broke or not.. My Warri brothers can attest to this!!

Ehmm @Op... It's good that you wish to write an article about ur brief stay in Delta state, but I must say most of ur points highlighted up there, are based no sentiments rather than facts & very biased.

First of all, my beloved state is not the 'heartbeat of the nation' , but 'THE BIG HEART'.

Secondly, when you spoke of the GOOD, BAD & UGLY, I wasn't expecting you to tilt it towards the looks of our women alone. I was expecting you to speak about their morals, character & manner.

As with every other region, we have all classes and kinds of people in the society-women inclusive, and we rock with It...

Our women are so hardworking and industrious, they don't give a damn or two about lazying about with one bloke who thinks he can impress them with his change.

Deltans learn to earn, and they do not rely on 'oyel' money alone. One of The major reasons for hostility is more of inter communal Land disputes rather than oil.

Yeah, Delta State is very hospitable and accommodating, you will feel at home away from home.

Lately though, The young boys are getting a little bit stubborn, indulging in antisocial behaviours....but hand go soon touch them.

UNIQUE I sight u, op wan carry abuja park go warri, tah!

A very bias and uninformed writeup, so because you spent a weekend in Delta state you feel you got the state and the people all figured out, this is what happens when you listen to too much beer parlour gist.
I didn't want to reply this writeup untill the point you said we depend on oil money and feel is our birth right weather we go to school or not, then I gave up and said a beer parlour gist member is on the run. get you facts before posting trash on a public forum

MENN, COME AND SEE YANSH!!!!

BUT I REFUSE TO GIVE IN

Nice one @ OP, but I guess u spent more time in the Delta South and Central part of the state, because those are the places where all the things u mentioned happen the most except the fine girls aspect in the Delta North.

But those babes in those 2 regions never believed they are never beautiful. Back then in Delsu they never won miss Delsu because even their brothers who organised the events know say their sisters no dey try.

Warri girls or delta girls are not ugly. I think most of them are dark skinned. That's all. And to average Nigerian men, dark is only beautiful when they say, but when it's time to choose a partner black becomes dirty and ugly. That's the simple truth!

Jollyjoy:
Op you lied! I mean lied! Am not sure you even visited warri becos seriously waffi babes fine die..maybe your glasses weren"t properly adjusted.

It is either you are being patriotic or lack taste... I was born and raised in warri... Used to think like you about warri girls until I ventured to other parts the rough schooling and then business.

When I entered the city last year, I had just one complain and it was about how ugly the ladies were... And very local.... From nnpc quarters to okumagba to enerhen to bendel estate even pti ... Areas I used to see things that I referred to in the past as fine babes.

Majority don't look polished... Just 'raszy' ladies

OP..u try...people just dey beef you..no mind them...but abeg wetin delta babes do you?..dem no too fine but dem loyal..which is better than beauty

alphaconde:
True but OP for you not to notice that their women ride motorcycles and bikes I doubt if you were really in delta state.

Plus you didn't notice their BIG tv screens at their roundabouts.


Delta state is quite developed, I currently stay in ughelli but the level of crime is appaling

were in ughelli do you reside?

The op knows what he is saying... From enerhen to uvwie to ekpan not to mention itsekiri and ijaw boys... The majority of them have that mentality Andis always the cause of problem amongst them and the oil companies.

I once lived within the vicinity of uvwie youth secretariat when it was located at enuerere before jakpa junction.... And then later moved to Friday ani family ouse area... I know the place too well as well as most if the rugged youths of those days.. Every single one of them have the mentality of something for nothing... A garage tout wants to live like a king... Somebody helping to collect revenue for the council... Youths without any formal education wants to earn 40,000 naira and even more per day offshore for doing practically nothing.
