Your Excellency,
RE: APPEAL FOR THE APPOINTMENT OF AN ESE-ODO PERSON AS CHAIRMAN OF OSOPADEC
We, the members of the Niger Delta Progressive Youth Leadership Foundation (ND-PYLF), write to you with profound respect and a deep sense of responsibility. As representatives of the youth in the Niger Delta region, we have consistently supported your administration and its commitment to equitable development and inclusive governance.
We wish to bring to your attention the need for the appointment of an individual from the Ese-Odo local government area as the Chairman of the Ondo State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission (OSOPADEC). It is our firm belief that such an appointment will not only foster a sense of inclusion but also ensure that the benefits of governance are equitably distributed among the diverse communities within our oil-producing region.
The Ese-Odo local government area has been a significant contributor to the state’s oil revenue, and its people have long deserved recognition and representation in key positions of governance. Appointing an individual from Ese-Odo as Chairman of OSOPADEC would be a just acknowledgment of their contributions and a step towards addressing the historical marginalisation experienced by this community.
Your Excellency, we are confident that there are many qualified and capable individuals from Ese-Odo who possess the cognate expertise, and dedication needed to lead OSOPADEC effectively. Their appointment would not only enhance the Commission’s performance but also inspire trust and cooperation among the riverine and coastal communities.
We trust in your administration’s commitment to fairness, justice, and inclusive governance. We believe that, by considering our appeal, you will be taking a significant step towards strengthening the unity and development of our dear state.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to your favorable response.
