The National Association of Itsekiri Graduates, NAIG, has kicked against alleged plan by the Delta State government to deny Itsekiri ethnic nationality of its opportunity to produce the next chairman of Delta State Local Government Service Commission.
The Itsekiri graduates in a statement made available to newsmen in Warri Friday May 30 declared that the rotational arrangement on who chairs the Local Government Service Commission should be maintained for the interest of equity. ‘’It is the turn of an Itsekiri to head the Delta State Local Government Service Commission .The rotational arrangement should be maintained in the interest of equity and justice’’, the statement averred.
The statement signed by NAIG President, Miss Alero Tenumah, its Public Relations Officer 1, Mene Dennis called on the Delta State House of Assembly to reject any nomination that do not reflect the established rotational arrangement.
NAIG position is coming on the heels of mounting speculations that the immediate past chairman of the commission, Chief Nkem Okuofu is allegedly intensifying lobby to return as the commission chairman against the rotational arrangement and that the state government appears disposed to her return .
The association also kicked against the establishment of a polytechnic at Abigborodo in Warri North Local Government by the state government, stressing that what the Itsekiri nation needs is a university in Iwere land which should be named after the great late Nana Olomu.
