RE: SENATOR NED NWOKO’S VISIT TO THE IOC’S IN NDOKWA NATION AND MATTERS ARISING. 

It should be taken that the Distinguished  Senator’s presence in our soil was a mere private visit to the IOCs for reasons best known to him. It should not be tagged an oversight tour because it is far flung to be so taken.

His visit to PAN OCEAN CORPORATION in OWA-ALIDINMA in Ika North could be so described because he interfaced with both the Firm’s Management and the Hostcom Representative , who unequivocally told him that the briefing he got from the PAN OCEAN Rep was a blatant lie as it relates to them being responsive to the plight of the Hostcom and doing what is expected of them. This was a balanced fact finding or oversight as his Legislative Function demands. Great!

I did send him a message immediately i saw the Ika PAN OCEAN tour , requesting that he oblige us the opportunity to know the date he will be in our domain so adequate arrangements will be made for his reception and aid his fact finding or oversight tour.

I got no response but only to learn from the PG of Utagba Ogbe, Chief Theophilus Adoh that he was already in Kwale, NW the next day already and done with the OICs there, Umuseti inclusive! That he was heading to Okpai thereafter!. Chief Gregg Osaemejor is in the know of this incident!

Brethren,  I made frantic calls to the Royalties and key Stakeholders of NW and they drew blank of his Presence on that fateful day. Shocking!

I further reached out to the Igwe of Okpai Palace vide his PA , Mr. Festus. Who told me outrightly that the Senator is not in Okpai Kingdom.  Same call put through to the Odozi Obodo of Okpai, Chief Ameachi Asugwuni ,also was same as the PA’S. I requested of them to please verify because I was sure of my take.

It was only in the evening after the FACT that the PA called me to confirm that indeed our Senator did enter Okpai and went to the OICs straight. We invited them both to the Oil and Gas Hostcom Zoom meeting of the 9th of June 2024, but both failed deliberately to show up. That is who some are!

Sadly,  days before that, the Governor of our State Elder Sheriff and his Imo State counterpart showed up as rightly mentioned by the writer of the above post for the Commissioning of multimillion Dollar Gas Hub by the President of the Federation,  Senator Ahmed Tinubu virtually. Brethren you know what,  the great Guest entered our domain,  Kwale and left after the virtually ceremony without any Form of Courtesy call to our Royalties and other Traditional Leadership plus stakeholders! Can this happen in other domain? Could it be that our own in Government of the State were not aware of his coming and couldn’t have properly guided him , given the usual tight schedule of CEOs of States  ?

The Oduosa could not hold back but expressed his concern vehemently! It is in the social media! Several  Gas Hub Commissioning has taken place with its attendant ignominy for us as a PEOPLE! Umusam had theirs.  Be informed that more Commissioning will happen. Our eyes is fixed on Ogbaeni Hub!

Are we going to be ignored again?

Investors are showing increasing interest in our natural resources but we do not matter in the eyes of the investors and the Resective Governments. Is this how it’s obtain in other Ethnicity?

My brethren, I think we have had enough of being treated with disdain!.

We are responding accordingly and in the most respectful and LEGAL WAYS. We are not lawless a PEOPLE!. We pride ourselves as such but nerves snap when excessively pushed. I pray we don’t get to that breaking point!

The Virtual Zoom Meeting was a precursor to more responses to our being taking for nobodies!

We are Ndokwa/ Ukwani ethnic Nationality of Delta State / Nigeria and deserve RESPECT AND BENEFIT FROM OUR GOD GIFTS IN OIL AND ABUNDANCE GAS.

Ani Ndokwa/ Ukwani bul’uzo!!!!

Ossai Udom.
