Read What Protesters Did To Acting President Osinbajo In Edo State This Afternoon


Protesters broke into the venue of a meeting Acting President Yemi Osinbajo was having with stakeholders in Edo state, disrupting the entire programme.
The meeting, which is a negotiation interface with the oil producing communities in the region, was disrupted after Usani Uguru, minister of state for Niger Delta, finished speaking.
Not even the attempt of Godwin Obaseki, governor of the state, to calm the aggrieved individuals yielded any result, as they continued waving placards.
As of the time of filing this report, normalcy had not been restored, but security personnel have formed a barricade around the acting president.
The same case of protesters storming a town hall meeting, was recorded in Akwa Ibom state, where Rotimi Amaechi, minister of transportation, restored normalcy.
The protesters were allowed to speak their minds, and they majorly requested that the acting president leave Benin, for oil producing parts of the state in Edo creeks.
A protester, who represented Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), said that they had already prepared their region to receive the acting president, but were told he could not come due to security reasons.
“If you cant come to our place, leave our oil alone,” he said.
Another protester said the region was not feeling the impact of the ministry of Niger Delta like other states in the region.
