By EgbemaVoice,

The Egbema Youth Political Forum (EGYPF) in Warri North and Ovia South West Local Government Areas, Edo and Delta States, Nigeria, has commended Hon. Spencer Okpoye, Commissioner representing Ijaw Ethnic Nationality in Delta State Oil Producing Area Development Commission (DESOPADEC), for his exceptional performance, which has surpassed expectations since his appointment by Delta State's former Governor, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa,  Barr. Ebigbagha S. Baidi, Chairman of the forum, praised the Commissioner's diligent discharge of his constitutional duties across the Ijaw ethnic nationality, emphasizing the need for support and commendation rather than unfounded criticism from sponsored mischief-makers. 

Notably, Hon. Spencer facilitated the completion and commissioning of world-class infrastructure in Ugulagha Kingdom, including schools and town halls. The forum condemns baseless publications aimed at ridiculing Hon. Spencer and urges there leaders to address the actions,

The forum demands a withdrawal of the offending publication and an apology to Hon. Spencer Okpoye, while calling on the general public to disregard the misinformation.

This was contained in a statement signed and issued to newsmen in Warri earlier today jointly signed Barr. Ebigbagha S. Baidi Chairman, Comrade Karina E. Yoroki Secretary, Barr. Ebiterigha D. Ejemi Spokesman, Barr. Odimiyentimi F. Eyenmi Legal Adviser 1, a softcopy of which was made available to The EgbemaVoice News, statement fully reads,...

JUST FEW MONTHS IN OFFICE, HON. SPENCER OKPOYE'S PERFORANCE IS BEYOND EXPECTATION AND CANNOT BE DISTRACTED BY MISCHIEF MAKERS EGYPF.

Egbema Youth Political Forum (EGYPF) in Warri North and Ovia South West Local Government Areas, Edo and Delta States of Nigeria has lauded Hon . Spencer Okpoye, Commissioner representing Ijaw Ethnic Nationality in Delta State Oil Producing Area Development Commission (DESOPADEC) whose performance is beyond expectations just few months after he was appointed by the Executive Governor of Delta State Rt. Hon. (Elder) Sheriff F. Oborevwori. 

The Chairman of the forum, Barr. Ebigbagha S. Baidi commended the excellent performance of the Commissioner who is deligently discharging his constitutional duties across the Ijaw ethnic nationality. The Chairman further states that the commissioner needs eulogies, all round support and not baseless criticisms from mischief makers who are sponsored by their cooperate paymasters in making unhealthy statements in the media space.

Hon. Spencer who is a committed and indiscriminatory leader was among those who facilitated and ensure the completion and commissioning of world class infrastructures ranging from schools, Town Hall and many more in Ugulagha Kingdom where he is being demeaned today instead of appreciation. The Commissioner’s achievements in the few months cannot be compared with the entire tenure of some previous occupants of same position he currently occupied, therefore, he will not be perturbed or distracted by cheap blackmail from political halleluyah boys whose livelihood depends on their cooperate political paymasters.

The leadership strongly emphasized that any attempt whatsoever to further ridicule Hon. Spencer will not be treated with sympathy because it is on record that no Egbema indigene has made any publication aimed to ridicule or defame any Ugulagha leader or other leaders from the Ijaw ethnic nationality for they are responsibly raised not to disrespect or openly attack leaders regardless where such personality is from in Ijaw Nation.

 The forum therefore, frown at the circulating childish and baseless publication from one so unfortunate Williams Ayoromiegha Junior who happens to be the Special Assistant to the Governor of Delta State on security, and also the Publicity Secretary of Ugulagha Kingdom Youth Council.

The forum in strong terms condemn the said publication in its entirety and also expressed concern at the Spokesman of the Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) Worldwide, Amb. Princewill Binebai who published the said publication with his online media platform (The Liberator Newspaper) as well circulating it on his Facebook page and other platforms. It is very important to draw his attention to the fact that the primary responsibility of the spokesman of Council is to protect the interest of Ijaw Nation and not to promote mischievous acts and misinforming the general public by unfairly castigating an Ijaw Son who is occupying such position. We are by this publication calling on the leadership of IYC to call the spokesman to order by firmly protecting the interest of the Ijaws and not to act otherwise. 

The forum at this point call on Mr. Williams Ayoromiegha Junior to immediately withdraw the said publication and render unreserved apology to Hon. Spencer Okpoye and also the forum appeal to the leadership of Ugulagha Kingdom to call their son to order.

The forum call on the general public to disregard the said mischievous publication because it has no iota of truth.
