OHORO-BOMADI

THE Ijaw Youth Council (IYC), Western Zone has called for the im­mediate rehabilitation of the Ohoro-Bomadi road by the Delta State Government.

The call followed the in­spection of the dilapidated road by the Zonal Execu­tive Council led by Nicholas Igarama.

The body comprising of Ijaw youths in Delta, Edo, and Ondo States called on the attention of the Delta State Government to the dangers road users are faced with.

Describing the road as a death trap’, the youths beck­oned on Governor Sheriff Oborevwori to take mea­sures towards restoring the road without delays.

Vice of the Zone Chair­man, Ezonfade Otuskelly said, “This road links com­munities in Ughelli South, Patani and Bomadi Local Government Areas. It con­nects 10 clans that made up the IYC Western Zone and it is a dead trap. “We are appealing to our promising Governor to help fix it.

There are faithful tax­payers using this road. Yet, they are suffering. The government should come to the aid of the suffering people by rehabilitating this road.

“Also speaking, IYC Na­tional Treasurer, Peremo­boere Amatoru lamented the state of the road and appealed for urgent at­tention.
