While addressing members of the public to completely disregard the statement from the group, the Deputy Governor insisted that the said statement by the southern part of Nigeria Liberation movement was issued without his knowledge. Otuaro’s position was contained in a statement issued on his behalf by the Director of Media and Publicity of the KBO campaign Organisation, Arex Akemotubo, copies of which were made available to journalists in Warri.

He also stated that his main focus as the Deputy Governor of Delta State “Is to support the Governor of Delta State, Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa to finish strong politically and in the provision of infrastructures of Delta State.”
