It is the responsibility of government to provide basic amenities and infrastructure for the people.
The people do not need to beg for it because that is the essence of tax collection.
Failure by any government to allow the people access to good road amounts to marginalization and even failure on the part of the government in question.
For the Delta state government it has been a harvest of roads in all parts of the state and this has earned Governor Ifeanyi Okowa the Alias “Road Master.”
However, the Ugbolu/Akwukwu-Ugbo road, in Oshimili north local government area, has remained abandoned for as long as the member representing the Oshimili north constituency in the Delta State House of Assembly. Honourable Pat Ajudua, has been in the Assembly, even when roads have been started and completed in Ibusa and Okpanam.
The question the people of that axis are asking is : why can’t this less than 10 kilometer road which leads to the local government headquarters be completed after over ten years it has been on the drawing board?
Is it that the attention of government has not been drawn to that road by the member representing the constituency in the State Assembly who is supposed to ensure that it is provided for in the budget and follow up with the execution?
If she has not done that for the past 12 years she has been in the House, when would she do so?
The “Delta Road Master” should please look into the Ugbolu/Akwukwu-Igbo road when re-elected for a second term in office.
