The protesters however allegedly accused the state deputy governor, Kingsley Otuaro of ‘cornering’ the DESOPADEC’s appointment slot for his cronies in Gbaramatu Kingdom in outright disregard to production quantum and the people of Diebiri Kingdom who claims it is their turn to produce the next member representing Ijaw nation in the oil commission.
