The Kokodiagbene Community in Warri South West Local Government Area has pledged to cooperate with the Joint Military Task Force (JTF) to curb illegal bunkering at the Jones Creek flow station and its environs.
The Community's Secretary, Comrade Sheriff Mulade who spoke in Warri warned all those involved in illegal trades especially bunkering to move away from its vicinity with immediate effect as the community would no longer tolerate, support or accept illegal trades in its territory.
According to him, Kokodiagbene Town byelaws article 2 subsection V stipulates clearly that "anybody who is involved in state crime or aids and abets a state crime in the town shall be handed over to the law enforcement agents."
He thanked the state governor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, for his pragmatic approach towards beautification of the urban cities and appealed to him to extend government infrastructural development programmes of his administration to the riverine communities because teachers posted to these areas refuse to stay due to lack of amenities in the schools and communities.
Comrade Mulade, called on the state government to provide ferry boats to convene teachers to various centres in the riverine communities, stressing that Kokodiagbene people believed his administration was the only one that could salvage and elevate the riverine communities in the state.
He reminded Governor Uduaghan that, Kokodiagbene Community in Gbaramatu Kingdom, Escravos was the most peaceful and law abiding community and host to over three flow stations but regretted that peaceful communities were currently languishing despite their huge contribution to the economic growth of the state and the nation in general.
The community called on DESOPADEC the state’s interventionist agency to recognise the town politically as the mother host community in Gbaramatu Kingdom.
