Nonsense sentence
[edit]The following sentence from the opening paragraph should be broken into two parts: "The city is known nationwide for its unique Pidgin English, popularly also warri is crowned for the role played by the active youth and their reactions towards situations." Additionally, the latter portion of the sentence makes no sense... "crowned"? "active youth" (active at what?) and their reactions (what reactions?) to situations (what situations?). That latter statement calls for an explanatory section somewhere.
Complaint
[edit]The people of Warri are not exclussively itsekiris. Warri is made up of three distinct tribes, the Urhobos, Itsekiris, and the Ijaws. These tribes have their own traditional rulers, and the Olu of Warri only reign over the Itsekiri people of warri. In addition, the Delta Steel Company. DSC is situated not in Warri, but Ovwian- Aladja. Warri right now suffers from serious air pollution. The motorcycle traffic in the streets of the town are hectic and they produce excessive quantities of Carbon Monoxide. Iteye
The Olu is found of iwere (Warri) so your argument is void Kwa265 (talk) 14:52, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
