A group, the Niger Delta Reform Agenda, has accused some Northern politicians of eyeing Rivers State resources for their ambition.

President of the group, Sergeant Danelson in a statement, said the sudden surge of interest in Rivers State politics is suspicious and deeply troubling.

He said their newfound activism is driven by ulterior motives, primarily their 2027 political ambitions.

“This unhealthy interest is not born out of genuine concern for the people of Rivers State but rather a calculated move to exploit the state’s resources for his political gain.

“The Niger Delta Reform Agenda condemns this blatant opportunism and calls for immediate action to protect the interests of Rivers State” he said

Danelson accused Governor Siminalayi Fubara, the governor of Rivers State, as the one who opened the floodgates to allow them feast on the state’s resources.

“It is disheartening to see how the resources meant for the development and welfare of the people of Rivers State are being squandered by individuals who have no stake in the state’s future.

“This reckless abandonment of responsibility by Governor Fubara is not only a betrayal of the trust placed in him by the people but also a grave injustice to the state.”

“The Niger Delta Reform Agenda vehemently opposes this exploitation. We stand firm in our resolve to safeguard the resources of Rivers State from being plundered by external forces. The people of Rivers State deserve leaders who are committed to their welfare, not those who will sell the people of the state out for their political ambitions.

“We call on the people of Rivers State to unite against this external aggression. We must stand together to protect our resources and ensure that they are used for the betterment of our state. We urge all citizens to remain steadfast in defending Rivers State from exploitation” he said
