Kwale (Delta), Dec. 29, 2020 The Ndokwa ethnic nationality in Delta on Tuesday blamed politicians and successive leaders for the underdevelopment of their communities despite huge oil and gas explorations in the area.
The group, therefore, resolved at its 2020 General Assembly of Ndokwa Neku Union (NNU) held in Kwale, headquarters of Ndokwa West Local Government Area, to salvage their 35 oil-rich communities that contributed more than 36 million barrels of oil produced in the area in 2019 alone.
The ethnic nationality, comprising Ndokwa East, Ndokwa West, and Ukwuani local government areas, also resolved at the event chaired by the NNU Caretaker Committee Chairman, Dr. Ogaranya Tabowei, to start the process of establishing a University of Petroleum in the area.
