we have seen the outcome of the region and the performing level of the commission under their control after sixteen years and before then.

The meeting of the presidential delegation to interact with stakeholders of the south-south region of the country has come and gone, but the echoes of the meeting are still being savor among the people of the South-south in particular and Nigerians in general. While others sees and acknowledged the seven points demands of the southern governors as a welcome development, there are those, from the South-south and the country in general, who from past antecedents of the southern leaders, knows what the demands might turned into, should the demands be obliged by Mr. President, and the southern leaders have their ways.

While we must applaud Mr. President’s democratic and fatherly disposition as a listening father to initiate and have such roundtable talk with the various components of the country, with the quest to listen to his children, we must also admonish Mr. President as a father, not to accent and grant the southern leaders their request, most especially, the request to have the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) to always consult with them before carrying out projects in the south-south or the Niger Delta region. This is so because, having been one from the region in the sixteenth years of PDP’s reign in the country and during the military regime, with the fact that the region has never been an opposition in those periods, we have seen the outcome of the region and the performing level of the commission under their control after sixteen years and before then.

After sixteen years of having them monopolized and do as they liked with the NDDC and to Arrow the development of the region, we have seen how the south-south and the Niger Delta region has remained an eye sore in term of development, the resources meant for the development of the region only finding its ways into the pockets of powerful and well connected people the leaders of the region dim fit.

Another big reason why the President who is the father of the nation shouldn’t oblige the southern leaders on their request to control the NDDC is that, southern leaders are just too mean with their politics. To them, the winner takes it all and the loser and their followers languished in the abysmal pit of denial and deprivation for the duration of the mandate of the winner. We have seen it glaringly in the recently covid-19 palliatives sharing in some states of the Niger Delta, where government and their various representatives at all tires only gave the state’s palliatives to only their party members and shared base on party line in a lockdown that affected everyone. So apparently, the southern governors are again seeking, under another government which they are now opposition for a new avenue to tightened the knot on their opposition, to block every benefit that might be coming from government and prevent their oppositions from accessing any.

In the sixteen years of PDP reigned, where they had everything triggering down on their line from the top to the bottom, they appointed and suggested who made it to the board of NDDC, and who got contracts. Just imagine how much suffocation, denial and deprivation the opposition must have experienced in those sixteen years, this is the tradition that had been broken since the winning and the inception of the APC government in the last five years which they seek to restore and continue in this voodoo and selfish demands.
