Delta AG lauds oil, gas stakeholders, communities over peaceful coexistence

Delta State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Isaiah Bozimo Esq, has lauded members of the community Development Board, various clusters within OML 26, including oil companies operating within the area in the state for peaceful coexistence.

Bozimo, who briefed journalists immediately after a meeting of OML 26 and others, held in his office on, revealed that he was highly impressed with the outcome of the meeting which he described as very peaceful and successful.

“The meeting was held between the various clusters and community development board in OML 26. It has different interpretations concerning their GMOU.

“Happily we were able to find consensus as to what the proper interpretation should be.

“I am hopeful that the progress we made today will go a long way in cementing the smooth operation of the GMOU and the peaceful coexistence between the various communities that fall within the clusters.

“Naturally, we could not conclude everything today, but we have made a very good start.

“I am glad that this has given us a platform on which we can build on lasting solutions.

“I am very pleased with the outcome of the meeting, and I am looking forward to concluding the very strong start that we made today,” he said.

Mr Bozimo, while appreciating the communities further for living in peace with the oil companies, commended them for equally extending their cooperation to the Delta State government.

He, however, appealed to them to always channel their grievances to the appropriate agencies of government for a peaceful resolution, assuring that the state government was always ready to assist them whenever the need arose.

The Community Affairs Manager, NPDC, Mr Blessing Okpohwo, including Sir, Henry Orioko Odhegolo, Chairman of OML 26 Community Development Board (CDB), commended the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice as well as the Solicitor General and Permanent Secretary (PS) in the ministry, Omamuzo Erebe Esq, for the ways they tackled the issues which led to a peaceful resolution arising from their GMOU.

The duo, who addressed journalists in separate interviews, agreed that the meeting was successful and that they were happy with the outcome since it was handled in a mature manner by the ministry, affirming that they were going back home to meet their people in good spirits.
