As it is now, we cannot get justice if a fresh GMoU is entered into without the review of the constitution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are trying to review GMoU without the involvement of the relevant stakeholders. This is another plot by Chevron to further pauperise and marginalise our people by using some elders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey cannot deprive the people of Gbaramatu Kingdom of their rights and they must stop what they are doing now in the interest of peace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf they fail to stop further discussions on the fresh GMoU, youths in Gbaramatu Kingdom will drag them to court and fight for our rights.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have it on good authority that Chevron has cajoled and induced the executives of EGCDF to skip the review of the constitution and commence a kangaroo review of the GMoU to cover the injustice done to the host communities in their area of operations.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Comments are moderated.
