The Delta State Government has expressed partial support for the creation of Anioma State, signaling cautious optimism on the proposal. Officials clarified that while they recognize the potential benefits, certain legal and political steps must be followed before full endorsement.

Delta authorities emphasized the need for dialogue with relevant stakeholders to ensure a smooth process. They highlighted that careful planning is crucial to avoid conflicts and ensure that the interests of all communities are considered.

The Anioma State creation campaign has gained momentum among indigenes who believe a new state would promote development and representation. Advocates argue that it could bring governance closer to the people and address long-standing socio-economic challenges.

Political observers note that partial support from Delta State is a significant step. However, they caution that national legislative approval is essential, and collaboration with the federal government will ultimately determine the initiative’s success.
