Okowa Insists Anioma State Demand Must Be Grassroots-Led, Challenges Nwoko

Former Delta governor Ifeanyi Okowa spoke at a party consultation in Oshimili South LGA. He reaffirmed support for creating Anioma State but stressed it must reflect the will of people in all nine Delta North councils. Okowa questioned Ned Nwoko’s recent push. He warned against turning the agitation into a personal political tool and urged genuine grassroots consensus. Advocates say a new Anioma State would tackle marginalisation, improve representation and boost development across Delta North.
