It’s time to secure our future, Senator Nwoko says as he unleashes bold move for Anioma state

Senator Ned Nwoko has launched a bold campaign to actualize the creation of Anioma State, declaring it a unifying dream for the people of Delta North and a historic opportunity to reclaim their identity and political relevance.

Speaking passionately in an exclusive interview with Leadership Newspaper, Senator Nwoko described the movement as a rallying call for justice, unity, and development.

The momentum behind the Anioma State movement has reached new heights following a massive political shift in Delta State.

Thousands of PDP members—mainly from the grassroots group, Delta Unity Group (DUG)—defected to the APC during a major rally in Agbor, signaling growing support for the initiative.

The event was attended by top political figures, including APC National Chairman Alhaji Abdullahi Ganduje and the Governor of Edo State, Senator Monday Okpebholo.

“The most important thing is the boost the APC received under the national chairman’s leadership,” Nwoko said. “The defection of thousands from Delta North shows how serious our people are about change and progress.”

For Nwoko, the push for Anioma State goes beyond party politics. He emphasized that the creation of the new state is a step toward correcting decades of marginalization and reviving the cultural pride of Anioma people.

“Our people were massacred during the Civil War. In places like Asaba and Ishiagu, families were torn apart,” he said. “Many had to suppress their roots just to survive. Creating Anioma State will help us reclaim our heritage and heal from that trauma.”

Describing the campaign as a strategic move for national equity, Nwoko argued that Anioma State brings new territory, new resources, and real representation.” “This is not just a political cause—it’s a social and economic necessity.”

Senator Nwoko expressed gratitude to President Bola Tinubu for supporting key infrastructure projects in Delta North, including two major dam projects now funded in the 2025 federal budget to the tune of nearly N30 billion. This federal backing, he said, reinforced his decision to switch allegiance to the APC.

“This wouldn’t have happened under the PDP,” he stated. “President Tinubu made a promise—and he delivered. That’s the kind of leadership we need to make Anioma State a reality.”

Looking ahead, Nwoko remains confident. With oil, gas, and abundant mineral wealth, he insisted Anioma is economically viable and strategically vital.

“This is our time,” Nwoko said. “One people, one dream. Anioma State is not just possible—it’s inevitable.” “This is our moment of restitution – a chance to rewrite our history and secure our future.”
