Ex-militant warns Ijaw youths against politicizing Niger Delta issues
Former militant, Niger Delta Endurance Amagbein, warns Ijaw youths to stop politicizing the Niger Delta's issues for personal gain. Amagbein criticized the Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) for allegedly politicizing the renewal of pipeline surveillance contracts by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).
The IYC had protested in Abuja, demanding the removal of Bayo Ojulari, the NNPC Limited Group CEO, over financial mismanagement allegations. Amagbein accused the IYC of deviating from its core mandate and involving itself in partisan oil surveillance politics.
Key figures like Senator Heineken Lokpobiri and Dr. Samuel Ogbuku were mentioned in the context of the Niger Delta's oil politics. The situation highlights the challenges faced by the Niger Delta region due to the intersection of politics and economic interests.
