2019 Election: Egbeme-Ijaw youths to Buratai, call your Army to order
In a statement its leader, Mr. Ebipade Kari, said, “Our attention has been drawn to purported plans by the ruling party at the centre to take over Delta State by all means in connivance with the Nigeria army.
“The shaky and flimsy excuse of providing security is mere gimmicks scripted to actualise the biddings of the ruling party. From the events recorded in the South-South region during the February 23, 2019 Presidential and National Assembly elections, it is clear that the ruling party is bent on controlling the states in the oil-rich region and had resorted to violence, gross deprivation of electoral rights and brutal force because it has no structure in the states therein.
“We shall not sit down and allow a set of desperate politicians who have no regard for the socio-political and economic survival of the people of Egbema to disrupt the peace in Egbema kingdom.
