Warri crisis dey calm down after Tinubu, Tompolo wade in

Ijaw and Urhobo leaders for Warri Federal Constituency finally call protesters to leave oil and gas facilities and Escravos River blockades. This one na big relief because since Monday, women and youths don occupy these places and threaten crude production.

Godspower Gbenekama, Victor Okumagba, Denbo-Denbofa Oweikpodor and Westham Adehor signed the statement Thursday after President Tinubu called them to Aso Rock. The president told them, and I quote: "Mr President called for compromise, understanding and the need for the Ijaws, Itsekiris and Urhobos to live together as Nigerians." Even Tompolo held meetings in Oporoza, Gbaramatu Kingdom on June 9 to beg for restraint.

The fight started because of INEC fresh ward and polling unit delineation from Supreme Court judgement, and ethnic tensions nearly boiled over. Now leaders say demobilize as respect for president and let them sort out power-sharing. This kind intervention fit work or na temporary ceasefire?
