''I have been bullied and oppressed in Delta for the past 8 years. Growing up, everywhere was called Warri. Now people are reclaiming their lands. It’s okay. But does it have to be violence? Does it have to be oppression? Why bring me down because I made a mistake?" she asked.
Real Warri Pikin had planned to host her show "Real Warri Pikin Live in Warri." But after she announced the venue and put out billboards and radio jingles, people from Uvwie said the location is in Uvwie, not Warri. They told her to change the name to "Real Warri Pikin Live in Uvwie." When she didn’t, they threatened to disrupt the show. She said they asked her to take down all ads, remove banners, and even change her stage name and remove the Warri from inside. Some also wrote petitions and said they would "come and scatter everything" on the day. Because of the threats, she decided to cancel the show.
She gave further examples of how bad it has been for her in Delta. She said one time she went to visit a zoo on the Itsekiri side of Warri. After she posted it, people dragged her online. They said "why did you go there? You nor know say you be Ijaw girl". She also talked about a wedding she was invited to cover and the groom called her later to say unfortunately they are not going to move foward with her as the MC that some of his Ijaw guys who wanted to support him on the wedding said they did not want her to be the MC because she is an Ijaw girl who is doing Urhobo things, she also said they came for her when she was contacted to promote the wife of Olu of Warri campaign to create awareness for her program and she said she can go on and on about several other scenarios.
She added that the disunity between Ijaws, Urhobos and Itsekiris is tiring. And she ended the video saying “At this point I’m done, I do not want to make mistakes anymore, make una carry go”
