A German-based Nigerian Mr. Victor Egwauliyemi Igbiaye has called for creation of an Iwere State to be geographically located in the South West since the Itsekiri share a common boundary with the Yoruba of Ondo state.
Igbiaye, in a statement, said the Iwere tertiary has the required land mass and minerals resources to be a variable State.
He also urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu not to ensure the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) upholds the electoral ACT as stipulated while carrying out the ongoing ward delineation in Warri Federal Constituency in Delta State.

“It is sad to note that in Nigeria government institutions like the Independent National Electoral will refuse to obey a court ruling for over ten years.
“The Independent National Electoral should use the original gazette map while carrying out the delineation to avoid causing a crisis in the Warri axis again”.
