Outrage Over Delta’s Lopsided Educational Institutions as Mulade Calls for Ijaw Inclusion,

By
Delta’s Lopsided Educational Institutions Spark Outrage as Mulade Calls for Ijaw Inclusion, By EgbemaVoice  An Ijaw leader and development advocate, Comrade Mulade Sheriff, PhD, has accused the Delta State Government of systematic marginalisation and deliberate neglect of Ijaw communities, particularly in the area of educational development and institutional presence. Mulade, who described the situation as “unjust, provocative and unacceptable in a democratic society,” said the continued exclusion of Ijaw areas from the siting of state-owned educational institutions represents a clear case of structural discrimination, despite the region’s enormous contribution to the economic survival of Delta State. According to him, “It is painful and unacceptable that a people whose land produces greater portion of wealth sustaining this state are treated as second-class citizens when it comes to development especially in the area of higher educational institutions. This is not onl...

By
DELTA UNIVERSITY: Give VC position to Ijaw —Mulade tells Oborevwori .... Cites lack of representation and inclusivity, By EgbemaVoice, A Delta-born Ijaw leader, Chief Mulade Sheriff, Ph.D, has implored the Delta State Governor, Rt Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori to consider and appoint an Ijaw man as the next Vice-Chancellor of the Dennis Osadebay University, Asaba.

INC IS NOT FOR SALE TO THE HIGHEST BIDDERS,

By
INC IS NOT FOR SALE TO THE HIGHEST BIDDERS Ijaw Nation is faced with existential threats in the midst of prevalent uncertainties, and there is absolutely no way offices in the most revered Ijaw National Congress (INC) will be for the highest bidders. INC more than ever, needs vibrant, focused, visionary, highly resourceful, trustworthy and very competent leaders to serve at the echelon of its leadership.  In the history of humanity, Ijaw Nation is one of the nations that has fought the highest numbers of battles. But it is on good records that the battles were not for conquest or territorial expansion. Rather, they were battles to protect her territories and abundant natural resources that have always attracted hatred, envy, and jealousy. Before proceeding, it is pertinent to state that beyond the ever presence of God among Ijaws at all times, UNITY OF PURPOSE and the general POWER OF UNITY has always worked in our favour.  Even though Ijaws disagree, there has been an ancien...
