Women from various local government areas in the Niger Delta region have gathered in Warri to express their disapproval of the planned October 1 protest against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
The event, organised by the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) and themed “Niger Delta Women: Empowerment as a Panacea for Peace, Stability and Economic Growth,” served as a platform for the women to voice their concerns.
In their resolution, the women, representing various ethnic nationalities in the oil-rich region, urged their children and wards to avoid participating in the upcoming protests.
They called on fellow citizens to give Tinubu’s administration the opportunity to address the multifaceted challenges facing the nation.
Expressing appreciation for President Tinubu’s efforts to support women and youth in the region, they asserted, “When you appoint the right people to the right positions, positive results will follow.”
Madam Beauty Warejuowei, a prominent woman leader in the Niger Delta, emphasised the need for women in the region to “stand firm and make the best use of the opportunities provided by the authorities.”
PAP administrator, Dr Dennis Otuaro, commended the women for their support of the current administration and acknowledged their crucial role in maintaining peace in the region.
