Delta South Political Leaders Meet On Peace, Development

    Niger-Delta leaders under the auspices of Pan Niger Delta Forum, PANDEF, have inaugurated a committee to hold talks with the six governors of the South-South region, persuade them to settle their political differences without delay and act as a team, henceforth, in the interest of the region.

  The committee headed by a former military governor of AkwaIbom State, Air Commodore IdongesitNkanga (retd.) was set up at the last meeting of PANDEF at Kiagbodo, Delta State and has taken preliminary steps to reach out to the governors.
  It was learned that PANDEF, comprising monarchs, leaders and stakeholders of the coastal states of  the Niger Delta region, was not only troubled about the disunity among the governors, but their perceived lack of political will and understanding of the need to ensure regional economic growth.
