“For instance, the introduction of cooperatives by Ndiomu was designed to wean ex-agitators of dependence on the N65,000 monthly stipend and has made them entrepreneurs, employers of labour and contributors to the economy of the Niger Delta region as well as peace and the growth of Nigeria.”JAMB Result
“The recent attacks on Ndiomu launched by those who had hitherto turned the PAP into a cash cow or personal automated teller machine showed they are the real enemies of the Niger Delta. These are portfolio contractors and corrupt ex-agitators affected by the Ndiomu’s reforms and initiatives.
“The coalition of ex-agitators of Niger Delta has full confidence in the Ndiomu-led administration. We have moved a vote of confidence in him because he has done well as the interim administrator. All his initiatives are designed to sustain peace in the Niger Delta.
“He has sanitised the office and stopped many fraudulent activities. The interim administrator should be retained to enable him accomplish all his initiatives which we can confidently describe as the game changer for ex-agitators and the Niger Delta.
“If past leadership of the PAP with much more resources at their disposal had been as creative as Ndiomu, the PAP would have succeeded in achieving its mandate. We thank the federal government for ignoring the enemies of the region calling for his removal.”NYSC Portal
