Ogoni Self Government Enters A
Higher New Level
Ogonis are to elect their own
president and eight provincial
governors before the end of
2014 as part of moves to take
the Ogoni self-government to a
higher new level.
The Ogoni National Legislative
Assembly has also adopted a
resolution to pave way for local
entrepreneurs to collaborate
with foreign investors in order to
directly exploit wealth and
natural resources in Ogoniland.
The President /Spokesman of the
Movement for the Survival of the
Ogoni People (MOSOP), Dr.
Goodluck Diigbo who announced
the electoral plans and
investment strategy, said the
measures were necessary to
bring about the economic and
political empowerment of the
Ogoni people.

Addressing the people on
Saturday, August 2, 2014 to mark
the 2nd anniversary of the Ogoni
Self-Government Declaration at
Ken Saro-Wiwa Peace and
Freedom Center, Bori, Diigbo said
the Ogoni self-government run
by the Ogoni Central Indigenous
Authority (OCIA), spent its first
two years building institutions
and capacity.
He said the six kingdoms of
Ogoni – Babbe, Eleme, Gokana,
Ken-Khana, Nyo-Khana and Tai, as
well as the two other divisions
known as national territory and
Ban Ogoi have transformed into
eight provinces, each to be
headed by a governor, while
OCIA will get a president.
Diigbo said elections for these
important executive positions
are open to all Ogoni people at
home and in overseas, without
any restriction, saying, tax
clearance would not be required.
Other new measures include
setting up of three standing
funds – Freedom Fund, Peace
and Security Fund and
Development Fund.
The MOSOP Spokesman
announced that under the
indigenous authority, Village
Councils have been authorized to
reasonably equip themselves to
act in self defence, when
circumstances demand.
In addition, Diigbo said that the
Ogoni Peace and Security Council
has been transformed into Peace,
Security and Self-Defence Council
in order to regulate activities of
village self-defence councils
For the first time, a minimum
budget of USD 640,000 has been
earmarked for each of the
provinces without ceiling on the
amount each province may
decide budget for itself, Diigbo
concluded.
This year, the self government
declaration anniversary, which is
the second in a row, was
expanded to last for a week,
including different religious and
civic programs hosted by cities,
towns and villages across Ogoni.
