General Silas Issues Urgent Open Appeal to Delta State Governor, Calls for Immediate Dialogue to Avert Tension Over Ward Delineation Exercise

By
By Amb. Gen. Silas Tamarau-Emi Toruwei, JP.LL (A Stakeholder in Ijawland) Your Excellency, I write as a concerned son of the Niger Delta and a stakeholder in Ijawland to passionately appeal to you to urgently intervene in the ongoing ward delineation exercise which is gradually generating tension and has the potential to ignite avoidable conflict between the Ijaw and Itsekiri ethnic nationalities in Delta State.
