Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has appealed for calm and mutual understanding following emerging tensions between the Itsekiri and Urhobo communities in the Warri South Local Government Area. In a statement issued on Saturday by his Chief Press Secretary, Sir Festus Ahon, Governor Oborevwori expressed deep concern over the reports of rising friction between the two ethnic groups. He called on all parties involved, as well as the general public in the oil-rich region, to exercise restraint and avoid any actions that might escalate the situation or undermine the hard-earned peace in the area. The governor emphasized the importance of preserving harmony among the diverse communities that make up Delta State, noting that the state’s progress and development are closely tied to sustained peace and cooperation among its people. He urged traditional leaders, youth groups, community stakeholders, and political actors to work together in addressing any grievances through dialogue and lawful means rather than resorting to conflict or provocation. “As a government, we are committed to fostering peace and ensuring that all Deltans, regardless of ethnic background, live and coexist in a secure and supportive environment,” Oborevwori stated. “We must not allow misunderstanding or disagreements to derail the stability and unity that our state has worked hard to achieve.” Governor Oborevwori further assured residents that his administration is monitoring the situation closely and will take necessary steps to mediate any dispute and prevent violence. He also reaffirmed the government’s readiness to partner with security agencies, community leaders, and relevant stakeholders to ensure lasting peace in the affected areas. He encouraged the media and civil society organizations to play a constructive role by promoting messages of peace, understanding, and responsible citizenship, particularly at a time when tensions could easily be inflamed by misinformation or inflammatory rhetoric. The statement concluded with a strong appeal to the conscience of all residents in Warri South and beyond, stressing the need for unity, mutual respect, and peaceful coexistence as core values that must guide inter-ethnic relations within the state. Delta State, known for its ethnic diversity and economic importance—particularly in the oil and gas sector—has seen relative peace in recent years, and the governor emphasized that maintaining this peace is a collective responsibility. He reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to improving infrastructure in Warri, emphasizing that maintaining peace is essential for realizing the city’s significant economic potential and supporting current development initiatives. “We urge all stakeholders to back our efforts to enhance infrastructure in Warri and to avoid any actions that could disrupt the peace in this resource-rich city,” the governor stated. Governor Oborevwori also called on community leaders, youth organizations, and influential figures to collaborate in promoting understanding, unity, and peaceful coexistence among the different ethnic groups in the area. He highlighted his administration’s dedication to fostering inclusive governance and equitable development throughout the state and assured that security personnel are present to uphold peace and order.
