The Traditional Rulers Forum, TRF, in Anioma, Delta State, has given support to the senator representing Delta North in the National Assembly, Senator Ned Nwoko, for the creation of Anioma State.
The royal fathers made their position known in a five-point communiqué issued at the end of the interactive session with the senator at Obior, Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State.
The Anioma royal fathers, in the communique signed by the secretary and Obi of Atuma Iga, Obi Daniel Chukwuka Ogbudo, affirmed their renewed sense of unity and purpose and reassured the people of their collective resolve to support the quest for the creation of Anioma State.
However, the monarchs encouraged Senator Nwoko to interact with other critical stakeholders of Anioma extraction to forge a more collaborative front geared towards achieving the desired objectives.
“We want to urge the federal lawmaker to widen the scope of interaction and consultation, particularly with critical stakeholders, to accommodate all shades of opinion in the pursuit of set goals,” they stated.
Senator Nwoko had briefed the monarchs on his activities in the Senate in the last year and that he had already engaged with relevant stakeholders, including federal authorities and fellow lawmakers, to advance the state-creation process.
He informed the royal fathers about the potential and prospects of an Anioma State as a catalyst for economic growth, more political representation and all-inclusive socio-economic transformation of the Anioma area, in its entirety.
In his opening remarks, the chairman of the forum and Obi of Abavo Kingdom, Uche Irenuma II, represented by the Obi of Obior, Ofuokwu III, said the platform was to enable Senator Nwoko to brief the royal fathers about his activities in the Senate.
The interactive session was attended by traditional rulers from across different kingdoms in the Delta North senatorial district.
