Nigeria's Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Ibe Kachikwu, has expressed optimism that the security challenges in the Niger Delta will soon be over.
He expressed sadness that in spite of months of intensive personal and collective efforts to engage all stakeholders in the region and the recent successful meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari, these attacks had continued.
“I condemn these wanton attacks and reiterate that the path to providing lasting solutions to the Niger Delta challenges remains dialogue,’’ he said, in a statement issued by the ministry on Friday.
He appealed to all stakeholders in the region to embrace peace and dialogue and shun acts that further create difficulties for the country as well as impoverish and worsen the ecological problems of the region.
