The royal father who spoke through Chief Charles Ikimi said the Vice President should not fail in fulfilling the promises made to the traders.

The reverred monarch stressed, “The two categories of traders you talk about so, dey here plenty dey wait.

“Before, dem dey see oil company’s motors for town dey drive dey come but now as dem go Port-Harcourt, as dem go other places, the people dey hungry. Christmas naim reach so, we nor see better inside.”

The Olu of Warri Kingdom said if the Vice President released the money for the traders, their businesses will improve.
