No fewer than 50 women displaced in the on going military operations in selected riverine communities in Delta State, recently protested their eviction and appealed to the state to allow them and their families to return to their homes to save them the agony of being refugees in their own land. The women, most of them with babies strapped on their backs, besieged the Governor's Office, where they interrupted the weekly State Security Council meeting presided over by the Deputy Governor, Chief Benjamin Elue.
