OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE FROM MOVEMENT FOR THE SURVIVAL OF GOKANA PEOPLE (MOSGOP) - SIGNED DEENOR LUCKY | #RWGBLOG
MOVEMENT FOR THE SURVIVAL OF GOKANA PEOPLE (MOSGOP)
Official Statement on Attempts to Undermine the HYPREP Project Coordinator and Sabotage Ongoing Projects
The attention of the Movement for the Survival of Gokana People (MOSGOP) has been drawn to reports indicating that certain individuals from a particular Local Government Area within Ogoniland are deliberately engaging in acts aimed at discrediting and undermining the good work of our son, who currently serves as the Project Coordinator of HYPREP.
It is particularly disturbing to note that these individuals have resorted to acts of vandalism, including the recent incident at the Gwara Water Project, as part of a wider plot to malign his name and force his removal from office.
We wish to state categorically that the people of Gokana will not tolerate any further attempts to sabotage the progress being recorded under his leadership.
Gokana remains the most environmentally impacted Local Government Area in Ogoniland a fact well documented in the UNEP Environmental Assessment Report. Despite decades of neglect, our people have continued to bear the brunt of pollution and degradation. The appointment of a son of Gokana as HYPREP Project Coordinator is, therefore, a long-overdue recognition of this reality.
Any further attempt to frustrate or discredit him will be viewed as a direct attack on the collective interest of the Gokana people, and we shall respond appropriately within the bounds of the law to defend our rights and dignity.
We also wish to remind all stakeholders that any future allocation of project funds should be guided strictly by the degree of environmental impact as outlined by UNEP, ensuring fairness, transparency, and justice across all affected areas.
MOSGOP remains committed to the peaceful coexistence of all Ogoni people, but we will not stand by while a few individuals seek to destroy what little progress has been made.
We call on all leaders, stakeholders, and peace-loving citizens of Ogoni to rise in defense of truth and fairness, and to reject any form of sabotage, blackmail, or divisive propaganda.
