Monarch Hails Wike For Proscribing Community Youth Groups
The Paramount Ruler of Ikwerrengwo community in Etche Local Government Area of Rivers State, Eze Felix Onyeche, has commended the state Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike, for proscribing the various community youths’ associations in the state.
Onyeche made this commendation while speaking to journalists in his palance at Ikwerrengwo, last Thursday, on the vote of no confidence and the sack of the community youth president, Mr Felix Amadi, by the people, recently.
The traditional ruler said the community ousted the youth president through a vote of no confidence on the basis of alleged illegal selling of the community land without authorization.
He thanked the governor for banning all the community-based youth associations across the state as it came barely two days after their community youth president was removed by the people through a vote of no confidence.
The paramount ruler urged security agents in the state to be vigilant and ensure that the governor’s directed was not flouted.
When contacted, the former youth president of Ikwerregwor, Mr Clifford Amadi, denied the allegations, adding that he did not commit any crime as alleged.
