Mamamu Blows Hot: Rejects Ogbe-Ijoh Delineation, Calls Out Leaders for Inaction

Anger reverberates through the political landscape of Warri South-West Local Government Area as Chief Bené Youkore Mamamu, a prominent political leader from Ogbe-ljoh, blows Hot, publicly rejecting the recent delineation that reassigns Ogbe-ljoh Wards to neighboring communities. 

His remarks, made during a press conference on Monday in Warri, have sparked discussions about the implications of such political maneuvers on local governance and representation, stating that he cannot betray or sell out the political future of his people for pecuniary gains.

Mamamu's rejection of the delineation comes amid growing concerns among residents about the potential marginalization of Ogbe-ljoh's interests. He accused certain political leaders of manipulating the delineation process for personal gain, asserting that such actions undermine the  political integrity and representation. 

"I will not compromise like the failed politicians from our area who may not understand the long-term implications of these decisions," Mamamu stated emphatically.

The delineation, which has been met with widespread criticism from various stakeholders in Ogbe-ljoh, has raised questions about the motivations behind the changes. Mamamu urged the community to remain vigilant and united against what he described as an attempt to dilute Ogbe-ljoh's political power.

"We must stand together to protect our identity and ensure that our voices are heard in the corridors of power," he added.

In his statement, Mamamu called on local leaders and representatives to prioritize the interests of their constituents over personal ambitions. He emphasized the need for transparency and accountability in the political process, urging the community to demand better from their elected officials. "It is time for us to hold our leaders accountable and ensure that they are working for the people, not for themselves," he declared.
