He described Mr. Adokiye as a true son of the Niger Delta and a humble man who will not debase himself by involving in conducts that are unbecoming of somebody of his level or being insurbordinate to the NNPCL GMD Mallam Mele Kolo Kyari. He called on those behind the blackmail plot to desist forthwith or else they will be reported to security agencies for arrest.

Davies Iyieke who signed the purported statement is a serial blackmailer and we are calling on security agencies to investigate his activities" Amb. Nwokoma stated.
