The Ijaw chief, said “we are still demanding for more federal appointments for our indigenes in Niger Delta region, and some persons are mischievously calling for the sack of an indigene of Niger Delta, Engr. Wabote over yet to be proven allegations. The Ijaws and Niger Delta people would not accept any sinister move to unjustly remove Wabote from office”.

The former chairman of Egbema Gbaramatu Communities Development Council said, “I, Chief Michael Johnny, I have never met with Engr. Wabote and I have never had any dealings with him whatosover. However, but since no competent Court has found Wabote guilty, and no agency of crime has found him guilty as well, therefore, anyone or persons calling for the sack of Wabote are being mischevous and attempting to blackmail”.
