Ex-Niger Delta agitators plan protest over deplorable East-West Road, blame Umahi

A group of former agitators in the Niger Delta region, on Thursday, announced plans for a massive protest over the deteriorating state of the East-West road.

The ex-agitators, led by Osaanya Osaanya, claim the road project has been abandoned despite its critical importance to national infrastructure, including the Onne port, Port Harcourt Refinery, and Indorama Eleme Petrochemical Ltd.

The protesters, who dubbed the planned demonstration as the “mother of all protests,” said they aim to mobilize hundreds of youths from the region to demand immediate attention from the Federal Government.
