Socio-political group, Achi Grassroot Mobilisers (AGM), has called on President Bola Tinubu to end the neglect of Ndokwa/Ukwuani Federal Constituency, in Delta North Senatorial District.
It spoke in Asaba, the state capital, at the weekend.
The group pleaded with the Federal Government to end ‘‘the era of political alienation, marginalisation and neglect of the three councils in Ndokwa’.
It said Ukwuani are the third homogenous entity in the state and largest in Delta North.
Achi noted that their last federal appointment was when General Sani Abacha appointed Prof Eric Opia to chair Oil Mineral Producing Areas Development Commission (OMPADEC).
Ndokwa land, it said, is the largest producer of natural gas in sub-saharan Africa, yet the people are the most neglected.
The land, it noted, hosts Agip Oil Company, with natural gas produced by Agip powering Obosi in Anambra and Abuja yet Ndokwa is under darkness.
Achi said: “At every election, our people vote across party lines, but when it’s time for reward, governments make appointments from other ethnic nationalities around us… “Ndokwa parade sons and daughters who can hold their own anywhere. The President should appoint our own. We are Ndokwa of Ukwuani, Ndokwa West and Ndokwa East councils. What have we done to deserve this ill treatment from operators of our political system over the years?
“With this President, we expected a change but, till date, because we are not violent or reactionary, this government has not appointed any of us.”
Contuinuing, it said besides Kwale Correctional Centre and the recent Federal University of Medical and Health Sciences, Ndokwa lacks a federal presence.
“We call on the President to rewrite the ugly trajectory of Ndokwa. Like every other groups enjoying federal appointments, our nation deserve same. We have top professionals with capacity.
“We seek a change of attitude. We seek inclusiveness, equity, and fair play. We are Ukwuani people, not Anioma, distinctive in culture and tradition. We own the land hosting the largest gas deposit in Africa with over 25 per cent crude in Delta State…”
