With persistent electricity shortages and slow-paced reforms hindering local progress, the Isoko National Youth Assembly (INYA) Worldwide has slated Thursday, August 14, 2025, for a public forum aimed at generating practical solutions and actionable policy recommendations.
The dialogue, to be held at the Isoko Youth House (Fred Obe Secretariat), Ozoro, will examine governance performance at both national and state levels, particularly assessing President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s two years in office and Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s contributions to the Isoko Nation. It will also review the implementation of the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) and address enduring power supply challenges.
In a joint statement, INYA President, Comrade Eniwake Orogun, and Secretary General, Governor Emumena, said the event will bring together youth leaders, stakeholders, and members of the public to deliberate on political leadership, energy issues, and legislative reforms.
Comrade Orogun stressed that as one of Nigeria’s largest onshore crude oil-producing ethnic groups, generating substantial revenue for both Delta State and the nation, the Isoko people must actively engage in shaping policies that impact their development.
The Assembly said resolutions from the meeting will be compiled into a position paper for submission to both state and federal governments, reinforcing the collective push for a more prosperous Isoko Nation and Delta State.
The event will commence at 11:00 a.m. prompt.
