Mr Jupusoibina Ekine, President-General, Kula Youth Organisations Worldwide, on Tuesday said led a delegation to the youth organisations of Odioma and Obioku, neighbouring communities in Bayelsa for peace meeting.
Ekine disclosed on Tuesday in Port Harcourt that the meeting was as a result of dispute between some residents of Akananga who were under the covering of Kula in Rivers and Obioku people of Bayelsa.
He said the President of Obioku Youth Organisation, Mr Daniel Berefamo, expressed displeasure over how some suspected Kula sons incessantly lunched terror attacks on his people for more than three times.
According to him, Berefamo said that the issue had been reported to the President, Bassambiri Youth who doubles as President of Nembe Youth Federation (NYF).
“The Bassabiri Youth President, Mr Theophilous Irua confirmed that plans had already been concluded to retaliate before the timely intervention by the Kula Youths leadership and promised to hold on.
“Irua and his colleagues, however, said that the suspected persons in question should be cautioned as they are not invisible,” Ekine said in a statement he signed.
The Kula Youth President, Mr Ekine appealed for harmonious and peaceful coexistence among the people of Kula in Rivers and Nembe in Bayelsa.
“We do not need a repeat of history that was not in the benefit of any party, and I thank Mr Moses Inene, Odioma Youth President for taking same position.
“We have all agreed to visit the Akananga area to see the residents and resolve the prevailing matters,” he added.
The youth presidents also discussed how their communities could benefit from ongoing seismic operations by a Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) in the area.
