Barely five days after a group under the aegis of Anti-Corruption and Integrity Forum led by one Fejiro Oliver, led a massive protest against former Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan of Delta state, another protest is being organised by a group, Delta Good

Fejior and his group, last week Wednesday, grounded Asaba in violent protestFejior and his group, last week Wednesday, grounded Asaba in violent protest where his group clashed with pro-Uduaghan group which almost led to bloodshed but for the timely intervention of policemen stationed at Delta Government House gate.

The group, through one of its leaders, Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe, said the protest will hold in Abuja with the aim of drawing the attention of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to the corruption allegations against the former governor.

He said the principal aim is to ensure the EFCC arrest Uduaghan and get him prosecuted for serial looting of the state treasury during his tenure as governor for eight years.

The protest he said will be organized by the group in collaboration with other civil society groups that are in the forefront of championing campaigns against corruption in Nigeria.

Oghenesivbe said there are allegations that the former governor doled out hundreds of millions to some unnamed officials of anti-grafts agencies in the past “but I strongly believe that EFCC under Ibrahim Magu is superb and cannot be hand twisted with bribes so as to close its eagle eyes to the stinky corruption profile of the ex-governor of Delta state, Dr. Emmanuel Iweta Uduaghan.”

He added that at the end of all the struggle, Uduaghan must be sent to jail.
