‘They Rig Election, Go To Church For Thanksgiving’ – Emami Hits Politicians Against Muslim-Muslim Ticket

Chief Emami asked: “Is it Muslim-Muslim ticket that has made Warri, Sapele, Koko and Burutu Ports not to be functional all these years? Or is it religious sentiment that has prevented the Ministry of Niger Delta, NDDC, DESOPADEC and other relevant government MDAs  from executing critical infrastructures such as Koko – Ogheye Road, Omadino-Escravos Road, shore protection and land reclamation projects across the oil and gas coastal communities in the Niger Delta, particularly in Delta State? Or was it Muslim – Muslim ticket that led to the wasteful abandonment of  the multi billion naira Gas Revolution  Industrial Park, GRIP project at Ogidigben in Ugborodo, Warri South -West Local Government Area?

“Need not remind anyone of several other critical infrastructural projects in Warri Kingdom and other parts of the Niger Delta that have suffered neglect in the past, whist we had Presidents, Vice Presidents, Ministers and heads of relevant MDAs that professed Christianity.

“The point is, let’s start judging people by what they can do, not based on their religious beliefs. I can boldly tell whoever cares to listen that His Excellency, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has promised me that he will fix government owned refineries, ensure take off of modular refineries in the riverine areas and other parts of the country, make Warri and other ports in Delta State fully functional, promptly address issues of land reclamation and protection in our coastal communities and restart the GRIP project at Ogidigben, among other vital projects, necessary for the socio – economic rival of the Niger Delta, including  its visible urban renewal, if elected President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria next year, so as  to bring our area up – to – speed with its contemporaries across the country and beyond.”
