Both groups assert that disregarding the Supreme Court’s decision to favour the Itsekiri would be unjust and could trigger instability in the constituency.
In an exclusive interview with our correspondent in Warri, Chief Monday Keme, Principal Secretary to the Amakosowei of Ogbe-Ijoh kingdom, emphasised that the unanimous judgment from December 2, 2022, directs INEC to create new electoral wards and polling units across Warri North, South, and South-West constituencies.
“Failure of INEC to complete the process of fresh delineation portends grave danger and risks no election in the federal constituency in 2027 and beyond,” Keme stated emphatically.
