Recall that The Igba of Warri, Chief Rita Lori – Ogbebor, Sir A. S.

The prominent Warri Chief and business man, in a press statement released this morning, Wednesday November 11, averred that he would not rest on his oars until the EFCC arrest and prosecute all those responsible for the disappearing N300 million meant for the development of Itsekiri Oil and Gas Producing/ Impacted communities under Chevron’s operational areas in Warri South, Warri South – West and Warri North Local Government Areas in Delta State.
