The former State, Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Civil Societies and NGOs, to Governor Sherrif Oborevwori, Comrade Victor Ojei has latched those government appointees who are justify the defection of the governor , his predecessor and others to the All Progressive Congress.
In a Press Statement, he said deltans are wise and not cowards and can see the lies in their reasons of decamping
Taking a swipe at the governor hordes of political appointees who are justify the decision to decamp, he said they cannot hide from the truth which is glaring to all Deltans.
“Once again, the shameless agents of deceit have crawled out to defend the indefensible. Dr. (Barr.) Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe, the Director-General of Delta State Orientation and Communication Bureau, has been busy peddling half-truths and celebrating betrayal as a masterstroke — but Deltans are not fools” He said
According to him “the truth is stubborn.You can bury it today, but tomorrow, it will sprout from the soil — stronger and louder”
Continuing he said “Delta PDP leaders sold Delta State and its future to APC over a pot of porridge. Why?
Because they needed a cover-up for the petition over the alleged ₦1.3 trillion DESOPADEC fund misappropriation — money meant for the oil-producing communities, now stolen and squandered by the very people who are parading awards and media endorsements”
Ojei said “Fred Oghenesivbe, you say the defection to APC was “holistic” and “unanimous”?It was holistic indeed — a holistic conspiracy to bury the destinies of millions of Deltans!
You speak of awards bought and packaged by media houses with brown envelopes, but let’s talk reality:
- Where are the CCTV cameras promised under the “Enhanced Peace and Security” pillar of the so-called MORE Agenda?
- Where are the armed drones you promised to safeguard lives and properties?
- Why are Hunters Association, vigilantes, Anti-Cult groups, police, DSS, and Civil Defense left to beg for logistics and funding?
You claim Governor Sheriff Oborevwori is “advancing Delta” yet Delta is sinking deeper into bloodshed, insecurity, poverty, prostitution, human trafficking, and hopelessness!
Mr. Oghenesivbe, remember: Sheriff Oborevwori sits on the Nigeria Police Council.*
He has a constitutional duty under Item L, Part 1 of the Third Schedule of the 1999 Constitution (as amended)* to fund and empower the police and other security agencies. He has FAILED!*
How dare you call this “good governance”?
How dare you spit in the face of thousands of families mourning loved ones killed because there were no patrol vehicles, no surveillance cameras, no funded police stations?
Deltans are WISE!*
We are not cowards!*
We see through the lies.
Your so-called “family decision” to defect was nothing but a cowardly deal struck in the corridors of Abuja to save your corrupt necks from EFCC handcuffs.
You abandoned Delta State for your selfish gain.You sold our future to the highest bidder.”
