The leader of the Niger Delta People's Volunteer Force, Alhaji Dokubo Asari has come out to declare the ongoing Port Harcourt ring road project as another act of injustice.
Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State awarded the 50.1km project at the cost of N195.3 billion and promised to compensate genuine structure owners that demolition will affect.
Speaking with his crowd of supporters in Abuja on Friday, Asari said it is an injustice to use money generated from the oil resources of other LGAs in the state to fund a road project in Port Harcourt whose communities do not produce oil.
He also swiped at those who advised President Bola Tinubu to scrap the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs, urging the president to scrap NDDC and allow the Niger Delta Ministry to continue.
His words, 'we struggled for the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs to be created. Some people went and told the president to scrap it. We immediately asked the president not to scrap it and he listened to us.
"We also wrote the president to scrap NDDC and replace it with OMPADEC to cater for the oil-producing states because some states like Ondo, Imo, Abia, Cross River etc which NDDC has made part of Niger Delta are not part of Niger Delta."
On the reversal order made by the detained Nnamdi Kanu, denouncing the sit-at-home - order, Asari described Kanu as a coward for starting what he can not stick to.
He further debunked rumors making the rounds on social media that he was barred from entering the presidential villa. Asari emphatically stated that nobody had asked him not to enter the presidential villa.
