SECOND PRESS STATEMENT
The Bayelsa Comrade Family, under the leadership of RT. Hon. Comr. Timila Austin Ayekite (001), Commander in Chief of All Intellectual Properties, hereby issues this second press statement following recent developments surrounding the matter involving the Azikiel Aviation Training Scheme (Azikiel Aviation Scholarship Programme) and the ongoing legal issues connected thereto.
Today, the President General held a peaceful and constructive meeting with Comr. Alagoa A. Morris environmental activist alongside Mr. Kariyai Darakoru in continuation of efforts aimed at promoting dialogue, understanding, and a peaceful resolution of the issues affecting our youths.
While the engagement was cordial and fruitful, our position as contained in our earlier press statement remains unchanged. We continue to call on the Bayelsa State Government, the Judiciary, relevant authorities, civil society organizations, and all stakeholders to intervene and ensure that justice prevails.
The Bayelsa Comrade Family firmly believes that our youths deserve encouragement, empowerment, and opportunities to excel. They should never be subjected to intimidation, humiliation, victimization, or any action capable of discouraging their aspirations and future prospects.
We once again reaffirm our solidarity with Mr. Kariyai Darakoru and Mr. Yebei Ebilate Yebei , whom we recognize as promising and outstanding youths of Bayelsa State. Their quest for justice is not theirs alone; it is a concern for every youth who believes in fairness, equal opportunity, and the rule of law.
In our earlier press statement, we clearly stated our intention to organize a lawful and peaceful solidarity work Come next week Tuesday
