Niger Delta: Underdevelopment driven by corruption, elite conspiracy, says Siasia
The Convener of Niger Delta Young Professionals NDYP, a leading advocate for the development of the Niger Delta Region and Chairman of Nigerian Young Professionals Forum NYPF, Moses Siloko Siasia has once again raised concerns over what he describes as “continued lack of visible evidence to suggest that there are serious efforts, by key stakeholders in government towards ensuring that the Niger Delta Region attains meaningful economic and infrastructural development” saying that there is an urgent need for all stakeholders, regardless of political affiliations, to work together toward ending the ugly trend in the region which is marked by alarming rates of poverty, pollution, environmental degradation, youth unemployment, and crimes.
