Group Berates Imposter Becham Ufuoma, Describes Claims as False, Reaffirms Support for Dr Otuaro


The Niger Delta Youth Council of Nigeria (NDYCN) has distanced itself from a misleading publication made by Mr. Becham Ufuoma, who has been falsely claiming to be the President of the organization.

In a statement, Amb. Blessing Adogbeji, the National President of NDYCN, described Ufuoma as an imposter who has never been elected, appointed, or endorsed by the organization.

The statement emphasized that NDYCN has only one recognized National President, Amb. Blessing Adogbeji, and that Ufuoma's statements do not represent the organization.

The NDYCN also reaffirmed its support for the Presidential Amnesty Programme, led by Chief (Dr.) Dennis Otuaro, describing his administration as the most peaceful, stable, and development-driven since the programme's inception.

The organization warned that it will not tolerate impersonation and urged the public to disregard Ufuoma's publication, stating that he has no platform, constituency, or authority to speak for Niger Delta youths.

The statement read, "The NDYCN remains committed to unity, strategic engagement, and regional development, and will continue to defend and support credible leadership that delivers results".

REJOINDER TO THE FALSE CLAIMS AND MISLEADING PUBLICATION BY MR. BECHAM UFUOMA

My attention has been drawn to a highly irresponsible and misleading publication made by Mr. Becham Ufuoma, who has been parading himself as “President” of the Niger Delta Youth Council of Nigeria (NDYCN) and issuing reckless statements targeted at respected leaders of the Niger Delta region.

For clarity and public understanding:

1. Mr. Becham Ufuoma is an impostor.

He has never been elected, appointed, nominated, or endorsed at any level of the NDYCN structure.
He operates with no mandate and no legitimacy whatsoever.

2. NDYCN has only ONE recognized National President.

That office is vested in Amb. Blessing Adogbeji, duly acknowledged by stakeholders, youth blocs, regional leadership, and partnering institutions across the Niger Delta.

3. NDYCN strongly distances itself from Ufuoma’s reckless comments.

His statements do not represent NDYCN. They represent only his personal frustration, desperation, and failed attempts to seek relevance through impersonation.

4. His attempt to run a parallel structure is criminal, fraudulent, and completely rejected.

No individual can form a one-man contraption and attempt to drag a respected Niger Delta institution into disrepute. NDYCN will not tolerate such impersonation.

5. The Niger Delta Youth Council stands firmly with the Presidential Amnesty Programme under the leadership of the Chief (Dr.) Dennis Otuaro.

Chief Otuaro’s administration remains the most peaceful, stable, and development-driven since the inception of the programme.
His hands-on engagement, transparency, and impact across the region speak for themselves.

6. Anyone attacking Chief Otuaro without facts is simply exposing their own ignorance and lack of understanding of Niger Delta governance dynamics.

The NDYCN will continue to defend and support credible leadership that delivers results.

7. The public is hereby advised to disregard the impostor’s publication in its entirety.

He has no platform, no constituency, and no authority to speak for the Niger Delta youths.

NDYCN remains focused on unity, strategic engagement, and regional development.
We will not allow desperate, unauthorized individuals to undermine the integrity of this great institution.
