Then leave the east to reduce your expenditure. You people are creating crises everywhere to increase your budget.

Fulani has been enslaving you for 50 years and you are complaining about one week sit at home. Idiots

CUMIN:
15millin dollars... where did he see the money from

He was born into wealth. His father's company has been rendering services to Chevron for over thirty years. He inherited and equally built his own company.
While Buhari keep borrowing to fund railway to Niger Republic and Navy base in Kano, a king of the second largest oil producing ethnic group is funding a road project awarded by federal government through NDDC that was abandoned because it is not a Fulani territory. This road will connect warri riverine communities to Lagos. In one hour thirty minutes , you get to Lagos from Warri north.

Bandits are the real criteria to declare a group terrorist organization. What is holding the government from declaring them terrorist.

Let me pretend I didn't hear this fool. How can our governors pledge allegiance to Buhari instead of people who voted for them? The north is really overrated with the kind of people they called leaders. Even their professors are foolish.

I didn't know that we have a fool as Senate president until he made that comment. We are already drawing our borders. If you don't want restructuring, we will evict all of you from our region. You can go and have your Boko Haram republic there. You can't dictate to us what you want. We are not under your colony. In fact Ahmed lawal, you are a bastard.

gregyboy:



What is wrong with you, you think this is Delta state were you guys constantly fight for ownership of land because you lots forgot your ancestral boundaries


Youre neither itsekiri or bini i dont see why you cant mind your business

Ologbo is an edo word which means cat

And it has always had enogie and not any fucking iyasere, it has always been an edo territories governed by the oba, because the oba allowed foreigners settled there in the past for trade beefits doesn't change the ownership


You know nothing about benin history so mind your business, when history is unfolded on the ownership of Ologbo with historical evidence, another cry will emerge from you lots crying on their behalf, like the case of ijaws

You call Itsekiris foreigners yet you want to claim their throne by all means.

gregyboy:



You imposter an itsekiri man wont make this useless comment

Stop attacking our people here. Our decision is final. You claimed that Itsekiri and Binis are related yet you guys are appointing enogie in Ologbo, Kolokolo and Aja-oki. You even set up and arrested the Iyatsere of Warri Kingdom because he rejected your enogie. The truth is that you can't mix water and kerosene. Come in our language is "Wa" while come in Bini language is "Lare" Can't you see the variance? Are they related in anyway?

We stand for referendum. There is no point going into another election to continue another fruitless journey where South will say yes, North will say no and we keep turning round a circle while the rest of the world is leaving us behind.

gregyboy:


The benin royal house of itsekiris have been ruling and leading the entire itsekiris people since 16AD, so is it now it is obvious that the people the benin royal house has been leading in itsekiri are yorubas


Oga am suspecting you're here to make trouble, you could be one troublesome tribal marked faced Yoruba agberu, from ogbomosho parading as an itsekiri to cause confusion in the south,

Be warned the benin royal is not to messed with...
Young man.... You yorubas need to get hold of yourself.... Invading cultural private spaces


Go and collect ilorin from Fulanis

I blame the olu for insulting his benin royal stool,

My brother, I am from Ugborodo. We migrated from Ugbo in Ondo state.
You will recall that Ugborodo people wanted to install Olaja Orori Benson Omadeli as King of Ugborodo recently. The reason is because Ugborodo people never accepted Ginuwa as their king from beginning and the sentiment is still there. Because we are speaking the same language, we try to cover it any time the issue arise. You can't tell me who I am. I should be the one to tell you who I am. The Olu cannot rule in Isolation. Without the people , there is no kingdom.

These governors are useless politicians. You have been telling Buhari you want equity in the past six years yet he keep appointing only his people. Nothing has changed.

OVB123:

My brother please leave them alone. If they decide that, it is way to go by electing or choosing Emiko, son of an Itsekiri man and Yoruba mother, will bring peace to the Kingdom so be it.
The only question I want to ask Ogungbemi is "who enacted that law of 1978? Why was it enacted? Why is now they want to change it?" These are questions becking for answers.

The edict or proposed edict as we call it here was horridly gazetted by ON Rewane and few others without consulting Itsekiri people because they have a particular person in mind that they want to make Olu of Warri. They used it to narrow the search to the particular person they had in mind and arrogated so much powers to he Rewane who was the then Ologbosere. We have reviewed the document and discovered that it is self serving and not in the interest of Itsekiri people. We have trashed the edict and that is final. Section 4 of the edict is the singular reason we trashed the edict. It is very insultive to our parent tribe. We are speaking a Yoruboid language and the said Ginuwa is from the lineage of Oramiyan. Ginuwa himself spoke Yoruboid language which shows that he is Yoruba.

Here are Omadino people still paying homage to their king in Ode Ogun state.

And you think this is good news? The reason why there is no Igbo there is marginalization. Simple.

Ifa is part and parcel of Itsekiri culture. Our culture is different from Bini culture. I hope you understand that the Olu of Warri is not leading Bini people. He is leading a Yoroboid people who migrated from different part of Yoruba land with their culture to settle in Warri kingdom.

gregyboy:
They should disqualified the three prince's, and the olu should be questioned dead or alive why he deliberately married all Yoruba women knowing fully well, that confusion may arise


The three prince should be disqualified and the iyasere steps in for the awaiting future prince,

All the princeses should find a benin or itsekiri lady as a bride to qualify their children for the throne, as their time has passed


You can't alter a law because of selfish interest laws are ment to be guided and respected the olu didnt respect such laws that gave him the stool

Are you under the influence of Kwale weed? Even the said edict said the Ifa has the final say. Whoever the Ifa choses must be crowned whether or not that other sections are against the person. Ifa has chosen Tsola and it is final. The edict has been trashed.

Efewestern:


Atuwatse has three sons, Prince Tsola and Prince Toju's mom is from OGUN, Prince Omatsola's mom is from Lagos. From all indications, the ruling house wants to end the anti-yoruba rules.

We don't want the anti Yoruba rule, it is a ploy by the Binis to separate us from our brothers. Since they use mid west to separate us from the West, Binis have been trying to annex our land in Edo State. We don't understand Bini language neigther does Bini understand our language. If you cast a news in Yoruba language in Itsekiri area, every body will understand what the news caster is saying . Likewise if the news is read in Itsekiri. They connive with some self centered Itsekiri leaders to produce the vexecious edict. Omadino people are from Ode in Ogun state while Ugborodo people are from Ugbo in Ondo state. How will you convince Omadinor people that a child born by their sister from Ogun state is not qualified to sit on the throne in a kingdom where they are major stake holders? How do you also convince Ugborodo people who are the highest oil producers in Delta State that their sister from Ondo state cannot give birth to a king to rule over their land? In fact the edict is very annoying to our people. No body want to hear it. The people have trashed the edict.

hatakekakashi:
Fake news

Keep quiet, I have been part of the whole activities here. I am on ground in the palace of the Olu of Warri.

DubaiLandLord:
Is the guy saying the truth? Cause it looks like a beer palor gist to me.

I am inside the palace of the Olu of Warri as I am typing this message. I am involved in the struggle. I am not an outsider.

Prince Tsola Emiko

Prince Utieyinoritsetsola Emiko was born on 2nd April 1984 to Prince Godwin Toritseju Emiko (Ogiame Atuwatse II) & Gladys Durorike Emiko, in Warri, Nigeria.

He got his basic education from NNPC Primary school in Warri and for his secondary education, he went on to Adesoye College, Offa, Kwara State during the period 1995 to 2001.

Continuing his interest for studying and progressing, Prince Utieyinoritsetsola Emiko got admitted to Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, USA where he bagged his Bachelors of Arts majoring in International Studies & Political Science, while minoring in History & Economics during the period 2002 to 2006.

This is not the end to his educational background, to attain a top position in his field, he took it further to earn a Master’s of Science in Management, from Case Western Reserve University in 2007.

Putting his knowledge gained during the past years, he returned Back to Nigeria for NYSC in 2008 where he served in the Public Affairs Department of National Petroleum Investment Management Services (NAPIMS).

Between 2009 - 2010 he worked as an officer as Shell Nigeria Closed Pension Fund Administrator (SNCFPA) and Govt Relations, Sahara Energy. 2010-2012.

Prince Utieyinoritsetsola Emiko, a serial entrepreneur is the founder of NobleNigerian Ltd and Coral Curator Ltd. He is the Chairman, Ocean Marine Security Ltd and Directors, Gulf of Guinea Ltd and Vessellink Nig Ltd.

Prince Tsola Emiko is a loving and caring husband to Mrs Ivie Uhunoma Emiko and an inspiring father to Oritsetsemiaye, Oritsetemisan & Oritsetimeyin Emiko.

Prince Tsola, a goal getter, loves traveling, hiking, swimming, kayaking, football, basketball & American Football. He is keen follower of history & enjoys movies. He is a follower of Christ and a nation builder.

The controversy surrounding the Itsekiri kingship tussle has been finally put to rest as 99.5% of Itsekiris insist that the controversial edict which disqualified a prince whose mother is not from Edo origin does not emanate from the people and should be totally discarded. They insist that they are Yoruba speaking people in Delta State who have no relationship with Bini people. They wondered why an edict should be made to exclude the parent tribe that gave birth to Itsekiri. All Itsekiri communities migrated from Yoruba. It is therefore against our interest to disqualify prince Shola on the basis of an edict that was made for selfish interest to narrow the search for an Oluto a particular person they had in mind. What Itsekiris have demostrated is that the people are bigger than the controversial edict. Prince Tsola Emiko whose mother is Yoruba has been chosen as Omoba elect. Congratulations.

The president should wake up to his responsibility and ensure fairness and equity

Legacy as defined by the Oxford English dictionary is the money or property that is given to you by some body when they die or in the form of inheritance. A situation that exist now because of actions taken in the past. It is important to understand the term legacy before delving into the debate on the interview of the former governor by Channels Television anchored by Maukpe Ogun. As a medical doctor, His Excellency, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan is very passionate about life. This account for his various free health care programmes that impacted greatly into the lives of Deltans. His Excellency Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan could not have listed all his people oriented programmes within the time frame allocated to the programme. Like every other human, everybody has a project that is dear to him or her. For Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, the free maternal care and free medical care for children within the age bracket of 0-5 is very dear to him. Not just Uduaghan alone but deltans in general who benefited immensely from the programme. If there is any programme of government that has touched the lives of all deltans positively, it is the free maternal health care and that of children within the age bracket of 0-5. There is no home or family that didn’t benefit from the programme in the state. Uduaghan is right by mentioning the free health care as his star programme. If you ask the average Okada or keke rider what he benefited from Uduaghan’s government, he will mention free health care for pregnant women and children first and Uduaghan bus before other programmes of the administration. It is disheartening to note that Okowa sold Delta Line and all Uduaghan buses to himself using God is Good as front while Deltans lament about the sudden hike in transport fare caused by the sales of Delta line to Okowa through God is Good motors. Deltans should be aware that the Nigeria Labour Congress(NLC) had offered to buy Delta Line at a cost far higher than the amount Okowa sold it to himself through God is Good in order to protect workers who are working there but the governor sold it at a lesser amount to himself (God is Good) and sacked all workers in the transport agency. He eventually moved those buses to Benin thereby depriving deltans of the benefits of those buses. From the above definition, the transport scheme is one of the legacies that Uduaghan’s administration left behind for the benefit of future generation. However, this legacy has been destroyed by the Pharoah of Owa-alero. It is very ridiculous to note that the media team of a governor who has no legacy to leave behind is the one criticizing a man whose legacy is what is sustaining the present government. The new government house that the Pharoah of Owa is enjoying today is a legacy of Uduaghan’s administration. Deltans are lucky that the foundation of Asaba stadium was built by previous administration otherwise it would have collapse on top of international observers. The only water tank whose foundation was laid by Okowa collapse while the athletic competition was going on in spite of the whopping 4Billion naira sank into the jamboree that earn the SSG Ovie Agas a dirty slap by Okowa’s younger brother. Everything done by Okowa’s government is fake. They are done with the intent to steal and destroy. From a fake slogan of prosperity for all deltans to ego aria slogan and the recent slogan of road master. How can a government claim to be developing the environment without developing the people living in the environment? If this is the case, it means there is something that the governor is benefiting from the purported development of the environment which in this case is road without bridges. Deltans should be aware that there are five classes of roads viz: class A,B,C and D. These classes of roads have similar appearance but differ in content and durability. Okowa chose to go for class E roads which is the cheapest. He award such substandard projects to pseudo companies which he uses as front to effectively steal our collective resources. His prosperity slogan crumbled because he is not interested in any programme that will bring prosperity to the people. The reason is because any project or programme that will make the people prosper will not put money in Okowa’s pocket. He stopped the 5million naira scholarship grant to first class graduates because he will not get kick backs from the 5million. He stopped the free WAEC enrollment because he will not get kick backs from the enrollment. He sacked 3,000 workers in the state civil service because he will not get kick backs from their salaries. He sacked edumarshal because he was not getting kick backs from their salaries. Deltans should know that the 4Billion naira spent on Asaba athletic competition that brought international embarrassment to the state can comfortably pay the salary of the sacked 3,000 workers for four years (40,000x3000x12x3) but because Okowa was not getting kick backs from the payment of such salaries, he sacked the 3,000 workers employed by Uduaghan’s administration. He opted to spend 4Billion naira on a competition that brought embarrassment to our state because he got his fair share of the 4Billion naira as kick back. I can authoritatively confirm that Okowa has no legacy that he can bequeath to future generation. His resurfaced class E road projects does not satisfy the definition of the legacy because these roads are failing within two months after commissioning. Therefore such projects cannot be regarded as legacy of an administration because they cannot out-live his administration. We are taking records of workers who have died in the various ministries of the state and local government as a result of non payment of salaries, arrears and pensions by Governor Ifeanyi Okowa. The king Pharoah of Owa Alero is too mean to be a governor in any state. Since he came into government as governor, he has been creating excuses to sack civil servants in order for him to pocket their salaries. He keeps singing the ego aria slogan to deceive Deltans yet he moved billions from the state to fund PDP national convention in Abuja. He moved billions to Edo State to fund the Edo governorship election, he moved billions to Ekiti State to fund the Ekiti state governorship election. What can best describe legacy other than free and compulsory basic education that Uduaghan gave to deltans? What can best describe legacy other than the free WAEC enrollment to delta students whose parents cannot afford to pay for WAEC enrollment. Some of whom have become graduates today on account of the free WAEC enrollment. The children that were birthed through the free maternal care are all legacies of Uduagan’s administration. The market women who got micro credit to set up business and their business are booming are all legacies of the Uduaghan administration. The 20,000 civil servants and teachers that Uduaghan employed are all legacies of his administration because their employment out lived his administration. Shoprite in Warri and Asaba and the jobs they have created for people are all legacies of Uduaghan’s administration. All the beautiful model schools scattered all over the state are all legacies of Uduaghan’s administration. The shoe factory that he established at Isele-Ukwu is a legacy of his administration, State School of Marine Burutu is a legacy of his administration. I can go on and on to mention legacies of Uduaghan’s administration. However , the incumbent governor Ifeanyi Okowa has no legacy. Aside the usual slogan of road master, I challenge his aides to mention three things that Okowa has done that can be regarded as a legacy. They should also mention any thing that Okowa has done that has touched the lives of all deltans . The peace and security that we are enjoying today is a legacy of Uduaghan’s administration. As Deltans bid Okowa goodbye in 2019, it is important for us to reflect on the legacy of his 4 year tenure. Although deltans are aware that his government is a government of deceit without any legacy to leave behind for future generation. Okowa has no political future in Delta state. Okowa must go 2019.

This Comrade Governor of Delta State His Excellency Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan is a pace setter for other governors to emulate. We the people of Delta State are proud of you.

the man is right, oil pollution is taking away fishing and farming jobs fro them. They will naturally demand for more. At least the governor is doing better than Fashola who is now a slave to Buhari
