How long shall we wait?
Itsekiri file a case in court that was fustrated for 16years and at the end in the supreme court the critical judgement we wanted never came.
The last 16years of democracy that have seen the underdevelopment of our places by those who are at the leadership of Itsekiri before the coronation of Ogiame Ikenwoli The Olu of Warri.
While WARRI SOUTH WEST case last, the leaders under whose government Warri south west was taken to Ogbe Ijoh never really show any interest.
Please Name the list of Itsekiri leaders that showed interest in recent time on Itsekiri land issues? Itsekiri land case is not their priority but the wealth from Itsekiri is their priority.
These same people made Warri South West the official Ijaw fourth local government in Delta state.
It was reported same that thesame leaders took the whole of Warri South West election machinery to Kurutie
It is also reported that these same people are planning to start zoning the office of Warri Federal constituency with Ijaw and Urhobo.

It was also reported in the last Election these same people went to campaign at Warri corner promising that a ward will be given to them in Warri South LGA.
It is obvious that it is our people who for the quest for political relevance play politics with Itsekiri rights, previleges and matters that concern our survival as ethnic group. We can agree that it is Itsekiri that allow the Warri South West headquater continue stay at Ogbe Ijoh.
They fall into every leadership gates in Itsekiri, gates that determine the appropriation of funds for ITSEKIRI DEVELOPMENT, gates of every ECONOMIC means in Itsekiri which include the Itsekiri Regional Development Council (IRDC)., and as long as they continue to stay in these gates, they will only end up fund their kinds THROUGH elections into every social and political office to dictate after them while the suppose Itsekiri progressives or good people will keep on lamenting and making quotes year in year out without any real work to change anything.
Propose solutions.
*Suppose good people should come out and contest elections into community and political offices in other to manage the appropriation and judicious use of Itsekiri funds for Development.
*An Itsekiri ethnic comference that will bring everybody including the Olu of Warri, leaders irrespective of political parties, groups irrespective of factions, community leaders, women and even children to discuss and agree in terms and on paper what we want as a people regardless of who is King, who is president, governor, Oga.
