The Vice President of Ogboinbiri Federated Youths, Comrade Job Tarilayefa Alpheaus, has issued a strong statement alongside other executive members, addressing the ongoing crisis in the Ogboinbiri community of Southern Ijaw Local Government Area, Bayelsa State.
In the statement, the youth leadership commended the Bayelsa State Government, particularly Governor Douye Diri, Deputy Governor Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo, and Southern Ijaw Local Government Chairman, Mr Target Isaiah Segibo, for their proactive roles in managing the situation and working to restore peace.
The group, however, criticised the Youth President, Mr Experience Pere, accusing him of disregarding the community’s constitution and allowing himself to be influenced by individuals allegedly plotting to destabilise Ogboinbiri.
