Following President Tinubu directive to the National Security Adviser to Peacefully resolve the lingering crisis in the proposed Warri Federal Constituency 11, representatives of the Ijaw and Itsekiri ethnic nationalities in Delta State have agreed on a power-sharing formula to resolve the dispute over electoral ward delineation carried out by INEC in the area.
In the agreement, the House of Representatives seat will rotate between the Ijaw and Itsekiri ethnic groups, with the Ijaw nationality taking the first turn for two consecutive terms before the seat shifts to the Itsekiri for a similar tenure.
The agreement was signed on behalf of the Ijaw nationality by former Deputy Governor of Delta State, Kingsley Otuaro, and Dr. Eric Omare, while A.S. Mene and Robinson Ariyo signed for the Itsekiri nationality and witnessed by the NSA, DG DSS and the Delta state Governor.
