On Wednesday, Abubakar Momoh, the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, held a meeting with leaders from the Niger Delta region, including former President Goodluck Jonathan and former Niger Delta agitator Asari Dokubo.
Momoh stated that the purpose of the meeting was to effectively fulfill his role as a minister in alignment with President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda. Momoh personally signed a statement confirming this.
The statement further outlined that during his meeting with Jonathan at his Abuja residence, they engaged in meaningful discussions and strategized on addressing issues such as stolen crude, improving infrastructure, and creating job opportunities for the youth in the Niger Delta. Additionally, the statement mentioned that the minister also met with Dokubo.
“The primary topics of discussion included regional peace and strategies to combat crude theft, which has been detrimental to Nigeria’s oil production. Asari Dokubo, who holds significant influence as a political figure, provided valuable advice and expressed his commitment to supporting the minister in his role as the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs.”
The statement also noted that Asari called on Tinubu to do everything possible to “bring the immediate past Attorney General of Nigeria Mallam Abubakar Malami SAN to return the N600bn belonging to the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs which he wrongfully channelled to projects that were unrelated to the Niger Delta region.”
