Hundreds of ex-militants across the Niger Delta, have charged  the Senate Committee Chairman on Power, Senator James Manager, to address the near absence of power in  the creek communities of the region.

The ex-militants, led by Mr Preye Ekpebide, Delta chairman Phase Three Amnesty Programme, who addressed newsmen in Bomadi, Delta State, while felicitating with Manager on his appointment as the Chairman Senate committee on Power, expressed joy that the lawmaker would perform well in his new assignment.

He tasked the lawmaker to use his office to attract more federal presence, especially power, to the inhabitants of the creeks of the region.
