Come ๐‰๐ฎ๐ง๐ž 16๐ญ๐ก, 2025, Ndokwa youths are expected to riseโ€”not in violence, but in conscious, organized resistance. Why? ๐๐ž๐œ๐š๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ž ๐š ๐ฉ๐ž๐จ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ž ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ ๐ก๐š๐ฏ๐ž ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฐ๐ž๐ซ๐ž๐ ๐๐ข๐ ๐ž๐ซ๐ข๐š’๐ฌ ๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ž ๐œ๐š๐ง๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐œ๐จ๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ฎ๐ž ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฅ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž ๐ข๐ง ๐๐š๐ซ๐ค๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ.

 

Ndokwa is home to the largest natural gas deposit in Nigeria. The ๐€๐†๐ˆ๐ ๐๐จ๐ฐ๐ž๐ซ ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐š๐ง๐ญ ๐ข๐ง ๐Ž๐ค๐ฉ๐š๐ข, Ndokwa East, supplies electricity to ๐€๐ฌ๐จ ๐‘๐จ๐œ๐ค, yet the same land lies in eternal blackout. This isnโ€™t just an ironyโ€”itโ€™s a national disgrace. And itโ€™s not just darkness of light, itโ€™s darkness of justice, of equity, of development.

 

They say Delta State is safe? Who are they deceiving?

Were Abraka and Ughelli North recent protests a mirage? What about the security infrastructure they never built? The police they never funded? The ๐ก๐ฎ๐ง๐ญ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ, ๐ƒ๐’๐’,๐€๐ง๐ญ๐ข-๐œ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ญ ๐ ๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฌ, ๐‚๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ฅ ๐๐ž๐Ÿ๐ž๐ง๐ฌ๐ž- ๐š๐›๐š๐ง๐๐จ๐ง๐ž๐.

 

Now, the Deputy Governor of Delta State, ๐‡๐ข๐ฌ ๐„๐ฑ๐œ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ฒ ๐Œ๐จ๐ง๐๐š๐ฒ ๐Ž๐ง๐ฒ๐ž๐ฆ๐ž, claims those planning this protest are not indigenes.

Sir, with due respect, that is a lie.

When your people are angry, donโ€™t gaslight themโ€”listen to them.

 

๐๐๐จ๐ค๐ฐ๐š ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ก๐ฌ are tired. The elders are tired. The silence has become betrayal. This region has no federal university, no state higher institution, no visible dividends of democracyโ€”yet it remains a critical contributor to Nigeriaโ€™s oil and gas wealth.

 

How long will we feed the nation and starve ourselves?

 

The deputy governor claims ๐๐๐จ๐ค๐ฐ๐š has been โ€œmore favouredโ€ than others.

With what evidence?

Is favour measured in personal appointments or in community development?

Was it favour when you held the Chairmanship of the Internal Revenue Board for 8 years, yet your people remained in poverty?

Delta State has no opposition because the ๐๐ƒ๐ and ๐€๐๐‚ have merged into a Frankenstein of failure. The ๐ˆ๐๐€๐‚ opposition is a paid puppet. The money meant for party development is laundered into personal accounts, killing whatever is left of democracy.

This isnโ€™t about violence.

This isnโ€™t about party politics.

This is about young Nigerians refusing to die in silence.

 

So even if you eventually decide not to protest, let this be your protest:

Organize. Mobilize. Speak. Register to vote. Educate your peers.

Let them know we are watchingโ€”and we are coming.
