By Sunday Apah
The Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, convened a meeting with representatives from Aladja and Ogbe-Ijoh communities, in Udu and Warri South-West Local Government Areas respectively, to address the longstanding land dispute between them.
The discussion took place at the Governor’s Osubi residence on Saturday and included members of the peace committee formed to tackle the challenges of the Aladja and Ogbe-Ijoh crisis.
During the meeting, both communities expressed their commitment to fostering peaceful coexistence and agreed on mutually acceptable terms for resolution.
Governor Oborevwori praised the elders and youth from both sides for their commitment to pursuing peace and assured them that he would soon announce a formal statement regarding the agreed terms.
Representatives from both communities expressed their gratitude to the Governor for his proactive approach and effective intervention in resolving the protracted conflict.
It is worth noting that Governor Oborevwori has previously secured approval from the State Executive Council for the construction of the Aladja/Ogbe-Ijoh road, aimed at enhancing accessibility and promoting interaction between the two communities.
