Concerned peace stakeholders in Egbema communities have appealed to the Delta State Government to postpone the Polobubo Tsekelewu communities youth election scheduled for Saturday 29 June 2019 due to security reasons.
A statement signed by comrade Emmanuel Osolo, Fred Waresah, Benjamin Ofiyai, Richard Keba, Karina Pablogha and others leaders of the Egbema Communities Peace Development And Humanitarian Rights Association urged the government to wade in and reschedule the said youth election until all the aspirants sign a peace accord to forestall the breakdown of law and order in the area.
According to the statement, the Polobubo and Tsekelewu communities had frowned at the electoral committee alleged appointment of some persons on Polobubo social media, claiming that it was unconstitutional, illegal and against the bye laws of the land.
The Egbema Peace forum also alleged that the national body of the Polobubo Tsekelewu communities had over stayed it tenure and therefore lacks the mandate to conduct any election in the area.
The peace body however noted that no elections should be allowed to scuttle or jeopardize the existing peace situation in Polobubo Tsekelewu communities
