A former Niger Delta agitator, Chief Solomon Ndigbara and the Ogoni Development Drive (ODD) have faulted plans by the federal government to appoint a

non-Ogoni, Professor Philip Shekwolo, as the project coordinator of the Hydrocarbon Pollution Remediation Programme .

Speaking during a peaceful protest at Yeghe community in Gokana local government area of the Rivers State yesterday, Ndiagba said a non-Ogoni citizen would never head the HYPREP, stressing that it would be injurious to the moral consciousness of Ogoni people. He wondered if it was because of the non-violent approach for the struggle advocated by the late Ken Saro-Wiwa that has given government the right to take Ogoni ethnic nationality for granted.
