Senator Nwoko's Anioma State Agenda and Sustainable Peace in Delta State,

By
Senator Nwoko's Anioma State Agenda and Sustainable Peace in Delta State By Jim Derek Onokuta The quest for the creation of Anioma State by Senator Ned Nwoko has raised concerns about his approach and potential consequences for Delta State.  A trending video showed Senator Nwoko issuing instructions to State Governor, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, in a manner suggesting he wielded significant power and influence. This posture is crude, disrespectful, insensitive, and unacceptable. The Okpai Power Plant, which Senator Nwoko referred to, is neither a Delta State Government project nor under the control of Governor Oborevwori. The power plant is owned by a conglomerate of multinational companies and the federal government. Media reports indicate that the House of Representatives has resolved to investigate the abandonment of the $38.7 million NNPC-NAOC Joint Venture Okpai Independence Power Plant project Phase II.

Okpai Power Plant: Senator Nwoko Should Partner with Federal Government and Other Stakeholders,

By
By Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe Esq The Okpai Power Plant, located in Delta State, Nigeria, has been a subject of discussion in recent times, particularly with Senator Ned Nwoko's calls for its completion.  While the senator's enthusiasm for the project is commendable, it is essential to clarify the ownership structure and the role of stakeholders involved. The Okpai Power Plant is a joint venture between the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Nigerian Agip Oil Company (NAOC), and other multinational companies. The federal government has a significant stake in the project, making it a national asset rather than a state-owned initiative. Recently, Senator Nwoko was reported to have berated Delta State Governor, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, over the completion of the power plant. However, this approach is misguided, as the Delta State Government does not have direct control over the project. Governor Oborevwori is a Justice of the Peace, and his visionary lead
