Orubebe Vows To Sustain Agitation Against Okowa

By Patrick Adamagu

Elder Godsday Orubebe, has vowed to bring the Delta State government to account irrespective of what he alleged as the mob action that has been raised against him even from his Ijaw kindred and the mainstream of the political class in Delta State.

The former minister of Niger Delta Affairs spoke in respect of the wide-ranging attacks that have been leveled against him following his assertions that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has failed his people.

Observing that some Ijaw had been recruited against him, Orubebe, a chieftain of the PDP in a statement obtained by GreenWhiteGreen, said:

“In Nigeria most of the times the people you want to fight and protect, unfortunately are gullible in most of the cases. Illiteracy and poverty are largely responsible for this challenge,” he said.

“I made a statement to the people of Delta State with particular reference to the Ijaw people about physical and human development. I also knew that some few uneducated and ill-informed Ijaw people were going to attack me as sycophants and as expected, I have been proved right.

“Those reactions will not stop me from fighting for the majority of the Ijaw people and Delta people in general. I want Gov Okowa to tell the people of Delta State how he spent 1.1 trillion naira with particular reference to each ethnic community in Delta State.

“I have already engaged the services of some consultants to value the works he has done in Delta State in the last 50 months. I am sure that Deltans will be pleased to know the outcome of this verification exercise.”
