By
Egbema Kingdom Underdevelopment Rooted in Deprivation, Marginalization, and Ethnic Bias By EgbemaVoice, The Niger Delta youth leader, Comrade Mingo Meshach Sayami Ogumaka, has expressed deep concern over the prolonged marginalization of Egbema Kingdom in Warri North Local Government Area, Delta State.
