Southern Governors Refuse To Be Vilified In Nigeria – Okowa

Delta State Governor, Dr Ifeanyi Okowa has come out to blast the public vilification of the southern governors who recently called for restructuring and fiscal federalism.

He recently revealed this at the empowerment scheme of the minority leader of the House, Hon. Ndudi Elumelu in Asaba.

According to him, it was very wrong of Ahmad Lawan to attack the southern governors for speaking their mind when other leaders in the country should rather emulate these governors.

He added that such statements should be avoided and Nigerians should focus on gathering at the table to discuss the good and future of the country.

His words, “We reaffirm, as elected governors, we believe in the unity of our people. That cannot be a reason for us to be vilified.”

“When we sit at the table, we will be able to discuss best what is good for Nigeria.”
