The Ijaw Renaissance Coalition(IRC) has condemned what it described as an intense campaign of calumny against the Special Adviser to the President on Niger Delta, Prof. Charles Dokubo.
In a press release circulated last night after an emergency meeting in Warri, Delta State, the group frowned at those who it alleged have been sponsoring faceless groups to spread imaginary corruption charges in the media to disparage the name of the erudite Professor who has overhauled the Niger Delta Amnesty programme for efficiency and effectiveness.
The group further passed a vote of confidence on Dokubo and pleaded with him not to be distracted.
According to the coalition, those who are spreading lies and propaganda in the media are not Ijaw sons neither are they ex-militant leaders.
“We are in touch with all our boys and all of them are satisfied with the leadership of Dokubo. Any persons who is not should come out in the open and not hide under non existent group.The last time we checked there is no group known as Niger Delta Amnesty Progressive Leaders for Buhari(NDALPCB). They are not part of our struggle. They want to hide under the name of President Buhari to cause mischief and instability. The public should watch out and expose them,” the coalition noted in the statement signed by its Secretary General, Dr. Tari Philip.
