 Immediate pass, Commissioner for Information in Delta State Charles Anyangou says the smear campaigns against the immediate pass governor of Delta State, Ifa Yokoa, were being sponsored by individuals who have bruised themselves with a struggle for control of resources of the state and a failed to remain in power. At the news conference in Asaba, Anyangou said the campaign of defamation against the former governor commenced in a build-up to the 2023 governorship elections in the state. In spite of the enormous resources that is generated from these oil producing states, you are just entitled to, first of all, only 13 percent as derivation, why the rest is made available for the rest of the country, because we exist as a country called Nigeria. Oil producing states are not taking the 100 percent because the government of Nigeria will have to run, based on the rest of even those who are from oil producing states who are working at the central government, great growth that will link up oil producing states to non-oil producing states. Provide other facilities such as electricity to both oil producing states and non-oil producing states. Provide security, both internal and external, to both oil producing states and non-oil producing states. Now you need to also cascade that to what happened in oil producing states where you have oil producing communities. If you decide that 100 percent of the resources that are managed from the resources that are drained from oil producing communities will be restricted to oil producing communities, then how are we going to now link roads from both oil producing communities to non-oil producing communities. We will meet them wherever they want to meet us, but we will not lose sight of our desire to protect our people, which is what they are against. After our progress, we will remind them that those their leaders who are sending them are funding them do not mean well for the state, because if they did, by the time they had the opportunity of presiding over their face of the state, they would have forced their development across the length and breadth of the entire state. However, the capital of that has to remain as a glorifying local government area for the period that they were in office. We brought a whole lot of difference, and if that difference is what is making them feel uncomfortable, we will ask them to repent and embrace modernity.
