President Buhari is the Problem of the Niger Delta , Obule Replies Omo -Agege
Comrade Francis Obule the Delta State Coordinator of PDP .Mobilizers has faulted Senator Ovie Omo -Agage, the Deputy Senate President for saying that President Buhari is not to blame for the under development of the Niger Delta region.
Comrade Francis Obule the PDP Chieftain who spoke in Sapele Delta State asserted with emphasis that PMB having spent five solid years on the saddle of leadership is enough time for him to make meaningful and positive impact for the people of the Niger region which is the nation's major economic mainstay.
Comrade Obule noted in his speech that
even though he has so much respect for the DSP , Senator Ovie Omo Agege , but we need to tell ourselves the truth, that since the day the APC led Federal government took over the reins of power all problems and advancement of this country are under the leadership of President Buhari .
He added : " therfore , the onus lies on him to prove his mettle in steering the stateship to a safe anchor point, anything bellow that benchmark is a failure. "
Speaking further: , Comrade Obule stressed : "l disagree with Senator Omo - Agege the DSP on who is to blame concerning the deplorable condition of the Niger Delta region ."
Obule who further decried the lackadaisical attitude of the governing authority said : "
" President Buhari cannot continue to play to the galary like the austrich because he knows what is happening in Nigeria hence they came with the Slogan of Change on the platform of APC but could not effect any positive change. "
Comrade Obule reaffirmed that all the blame should go to President Buhari who is the Head of government, because all the promises he made during their campaign are yet to be delivered midway into the end of second tenure. .
According to Comrade Obule, there are clear reasons why Buhari should be blamed for any action or inaction behind the under development of the Niger Delta.
He explained saying : " just take a look at what is going on in NDDC today, nobody has been sacked from the board, why? the answer is not far fetched, thieves, treasury looters covered with APC presidential immunity , that indeed is a regrettable reality which has placed another big question mark on Omo Agege's innocent claim on behalf of President Buhari. "
Obule maintained that, if Mr President was prepared to think outside the box , by now he would have moved the Niger Delta region from economic quagmire by executing the EPZ Project, the Gbaramatu Deep Sea Port, the Warri and Sapele Ports which are comatose today would have been revived by now . to strengthen the economic corridor of the South South.
Comrade Obule argued that: "Since Buhari have accepted a position of leadership on the mantra of change , all we want is that change to a better Nigeria, once you fail to achieve that then you can not blame anybody because you know the problem of this country before your party came with the Slogan of change, then why seeking exoneration instead of owning up that that he is bereft and economically clueless to fix the problems of the Niger Delta in particular and Nigeria in general. ".
Comrade Obule noted that President Buhari chose the posture of " Baba Go Slow " and I Don't Care Character over the woes of the Niger Delta , adding that for acting contrary to the Spirit and Letters of the oath of office he took to show equal interest to every part of Nigeria he is to blame for the current predicaments of the Niger Delta
