Wike: NDDC Not Any State, Ethnic Group’s Birthright by MYZOLE: 8:06am On Feb 07, 2021

Rivers State Governor,  Nyesom Wike, has condemned the posture of some ethnic groups in the Niger Delta region that behave as if the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) belongs to them.

The governor said the commission belongs to all states in the region and that no particular ethnic group could assert itself as the dominant owner of the commission, as has been observed of recent.
He stated this when he played host to the Interim Management Committee of NDDC led by Effiong  Akwa in Government House, Port Harcourt yesterday.

The governor also said such people  leave their states and come to Rivers to block the gates of the commission, cause crisis and frustrate economic activities in the state.
“Anybody can be appointed in Niger Delta. There are people who believe that if they appoint somebody from Edo or Cross River State for example, they will say no, that those people are not the core Niger Delta states. We must have to stop that.

“NDDC does not belong to any ethnic group in the Niger Delta region. It does not belong to anybody. There are people who have seen themselves that they are the owners of NDDC. They leave their state and come to NDDC to block NDDC gate. We are peaceful people, but nobody should push us to the point where we can tell you enough is enough.

“The next time they try it again to cause crisis in our state, I will mobilise our people against them. I am not saying if you have grievances with NDDC you shouldn’t seek how to settle it. But, don’t use it to cause problem for us, to begin to make economic activities not to move.”
The governor challenged the new interim leadership to be determined to make a difference, change the current narrative of the commission of serving outsiders’ interest and abandoning its core mandate of developing the region.

Governor Wike also urged NDDC to send their partnership support towards the reconstruction of the ongoing dualisation of  Eastern by-pass road where the NDDC permanent headquarters is located.
Interim Administrator and Chief Executive Officer of the NDDC, Effiong  Akwa said the visit was the first to be undertaken by his team to any governor in the region

Dear Igbo Outcast Wike, Niger Delta Belongs to the Ijaws, Ogonis, Akwa/Cross etc Don't drag Igbos and other of our brother tribes in a supremacy struggle with the Ijaws in the Niger Delta, Ijaws obviously rule the Swamp of Niger Delta, leave the creek politics, Ibo boy that's what an average Ijaw sees in You, You can't eat your cake and have it back, you can't kill Igbos and wish to ride on our fame, Igboland is East central state, Niger Delta is Secondary and since you are not even Igbo please speak for your tribe and Ijaw side of River state is okay with current status of the Niger Delta politics, Goodluck in your Niger Delta Republic, Day never break this one don they cry. If Okowa is not speaking Igboland is good, Wike should speak for his tribe.

The boy is crying, I will mobilise our people lol, is he now a Kanu wannabe, when a state governor have to mobilise people, please don't mobilise oo, you have enough people, Ijaws are a great chunk of Rivers state they can put you in your place right there. You have PH, what more do you want, or you need more money to send to Sokoto when oil spillage is ravaging Ijaw, Ogoni land and pollution killing in PH, I wonder who you can mobilise, prepare to retire by 2023 or rest in the Senate.

That Commission eh... I don't understand how they formed it but people employed directly there are very wealthy doing nothing. Go to their state offices, the workers will gist from morning till 4 and still cash out at the end of the month/year.
They have two types of employments there, if you are employed directly even as a security man... No worry enough butter for bread... Good afternoon

Good for them, you don't know how they were employed but you know how their oil is drilled, why won't they gist when their farmland and fisheries are poisoned with oil linkage, just tell the Igbo Wike that Igbos know that Ijaws are the biggest oil producing tribe in Nigeria and as such they should dominate over there, The Ijaws are the majority tribe in the Niger Delta.

What do he want, Portharcurt is already the capital of Rivers state, how many Ijaws are working in Juicy position in PH government, other tribes are fine, Akwa/Cross are busy with development, Leave Niger Delta for Ijaws before you bring another tags on the Igbos becuase ones you Igbos from that side commit any crime it will rub off on all of us, better respect Your Rivers state, mind your 4 local government there is no way a minority will dictate for the majority of Niger Delta don't, before you drag Igbos into your oil politics

What fuckery is this?

Akwa ibom now controls NDDC and wike is now showing his hatred for other tribes in front of the representative.

This is stupidity. Now I know this man is evil. Keep washing your dirty linen in public.

As if he doesn't see the amount of northerners in that building to ask questions.

So is packing their cars there a problem to him?

Naija Delta Youths, over to you.
Hold your leaders and militant leaders accountable for what a region that is supposed to be the most beautiful and the best region in Nigeria has turned to.
Take control of your future.
May Saro Wiwa's soul continue to rest in perfect peace, he was a great man. He fought for his people.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has commenced an investigation into allegations of diversion of public funds against the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio and the acting Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Professor Daniel Pondei.

Naija Delta Youths......
Over to you.
Ask your leaders questions and take control of your future.
Enough is enough......if you think the same
The ball is in your court!

Truth is not bitter,
People are just bitter to the truth!

For Christ sake, Ijaws are not even the majority in the Niger Delta but always act as if they own the region. This is awake- up call for the Efiks, Ibibios Annang to see themselves as one people, not different people so that we can prove to the Ijaws that they are minority in the Niger Delta

Guy you are confused, wike is referring to Akwa ibom people that have taken over NDDC and are now there in their numbers and acting as if NDDC belongs to them. Have you even been to NDDC office at aba road before?

Godswill akpabio is changing things in that ministry and they don't like it, Akwa ibom have never had the upper hand in that ministry as it has now, despite producing the largest crude in the country.
