…..Ebiniyi Pledges Collaborative Leadership, Seeks Stakeholders’ Support for Regional Development.
The National Executive of the Niger Delta Youth Movement (NDYM) on Thursday inaugurated the newly elected executive members of its Ondo State Chapter, led by Comrade Busayo Julius Ebiniyi. The ceremony was held in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.
Ebiniyi emerged as chairman following a transparent election conducted in Ondo State on December 6, 2025. The exercise was supervised by the NDYM National President alongside other members of the national executive.
NDYM’s core mandate includes empowering youths across the Niger Delta through skill acquisition in ICT, maritime studies, and vocational training to enhance employability, reduce crime, and promote development.
The group also champions good governance, accountability, and equitable resource distribution to address persistent regional challenges such as unemployment and marginalisation.
In his inauguration address, Ebiniyi pledged unwavering loyalty and commitment to the people of the oil-producing communities, especially the youths.
He assured that his administration would prioritise collaboration and synergy with all development partners, including the Federal and State Governments, NDDC, OSOPADEC, oil companies, and other relevant agencies.
His speech reads, “no doubt, it has been a torturous journey, but we give God Almighty the glory for granting us the courage to face challenges, achieve victory, and preserve us from untoward developments. To this end, I make bold to say that there is no victor, no vanquished,” he said.
“The inauguration marks the dawn of a new era in our history, one we believe will advance the collective good of the region.”
Ebiniyi appealed for the cooperation of the Niger Delta youths, the government at all levels, and stakeholders to drive the transformational agenda of his administration.
“With a deep sense of responsibility, I appeal to our youths, governments, and stakeholders to work with us for the transformation of the Niger Delta Region. It is no news that we face infrastructural deficits and a lack of basic social amenities. The current reality places a heavy burden on our shoulders, and we must deliver by attracting sustainable growth, socio-economic development, and political stability,” he stated.
He thanked the NDYM National President and the national executive for their steadfastness and commitment to ensuring a free and fair election in the Ondo State chapter.
