ITSEKIRI NATIONAL YOUTH COUNCIL, SAPELE CHAPTER

ITSEKIRI NATIONAL YOUTH COUNCIL
SAPELE CHAPTER


REJOINDER: TOTALITY OF TOWNS AND VILLAGES IN URHOBO NATION ACCORDING TO KINGDOMS: OKPE KINGDOM.


Our attention at the Sapele Branch of the Itsekiri National Youths Council (INYC) has been drawn to an eventual subsumption of automous Itekiri Communities in Sapele Local Government Area into Okpe Kingdom in a viral list of Delta Central communities penned to benefit from the Federal Government Covid 19 relief funds through the Deputy President of the Nigerian Senate. 

While those of us in Delta Central are buoyed by the magnanimity and thoughtfulness of our Deputy Senate President to include us in the Federal Government’s plans at such a critical time as this Covid 19 Lockdown, however, we have noticed some errors in the composition of the list as provided to Distinguished Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, the Deputy Senate President. Hence, we have decided to furnish him with the correct information with respect to automous Itsekiri Communities in Sapele. 

Below are the names of Itsekiri Communities in Sapele Local Government Area:

1. Ugbekoko
2. Ugbeyiyi
3. Ogorodo 
4. Oton Iyatsete (corrupted to Oton Hana)
5. Ajimele
6. Obontie
7. Ajojigwo
8. Aja - Sagay
9. Idale Ugbeyiyi

These above nine automous Communities have solely been occupied by Itsekiris since pre-colonial era till date. 

Therefore, it is imperative to bring to the notice of the Federal Government, the claim by a section of the leadership of Okpe in Sapele, (which may have influenced the aforementioned subsumption) to deliberately disenfranchise our people from enjoying the dividends of democracy. It is also worthy of note that we contributed in the voting process that saw the emergence of President Mohammadu Buhari as president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. 

Therefore, we call on the appropriate authorities through this rejoinder to effect this correction as highlighted by the Council for proper coordination of whatever palliatives meant for the people of Sapele Local Government Area.

God bless our Deputy President of the Senate!
God bless Delta Central!!
God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria!!!
