The Delta State Government has issued a clarification regarding the autonomous status of the Olodu community in the Aniocha South Local Government Area, dispelling recent misconceptions.
In a statement by the State Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, Mr. Charles Aniagwu, it was highlighted that a memo proposing autonomy for Olodu was included in the agenda for the inaugural meeting of the State Executive Council for 2025.
“However, this memo was withdrawn at the direction of His Excellency, Rt. Honorable (Elder) Sheriff Oborevwori, Governor of Delta State before the meeting began.
The government urges the public to disregard any previous reports that incorrectly suggested the community had been granted autonomous status.
