“Urgent Need for the Otutuama-Esaba-Ophorigbala-Iwhre-ogun-Otitiri Road in Owahwa Island”
Dear Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, Governor, Delta State
- I write to draw your attention to the pressing concern and urgent need of the residents of Owahwa Island, Ughievwen Kingdom in Ughelli South LGA, Delta State. The prolonged anticipation for the construction and contnuation of the abandoned Otutuama-Esaba-Ophorigbala-Iwhre-ogun-Otitiri road project has left the islanders grappling with challenges exacerbated by the lack of proper road infrastructure.
- Now that the dry season is here. It brings hope to the people of Owahwa Island, as it signifies an opportune time to address the longstanding issue of inaccessibility. It has become an urgent undertaken while fully acknowledging the fact that the raining season will, once again, soon set in when nothing could be done.
- The Otutuama-Esaba-Ophorigbala-Iwhre-ogun-Otitiri road is not merely a construction project; it is a lifeline for the residents, a pathway to progress, and a means to alleviate the burdensome conditions they have endured for far too long.
- Your Excellency, the islanders yearn for your intervention to expedite the commencement and completion of this vital road project. As a beacon of development, your support will not only enhance connectivity but also open doors to economic opportunities, improved healthcare access, and overall better living standards for the people of Owahwa Island. Sir, with this projected fully completed by you and your administration, it will be the only viable and sustainable dividend of democracy in the Island since the era of PDP from 1999 till date.
- I implore you, sir, to instruct the relevant authorities, including the esteemed Commissioner for Urban Highway, Hon Rume Izeze Reuben, to swiftly address this matter before the rains set in. The plight of the Owahwa Island residents demands urgent attention, and the timely execution of this road project will undoubtedly uplift the spirits of the community.
- In closing, I urge you, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, to be the catalyst for positive change in Owahwa Island. The fulfillment of this road project is not just a matter of infrastructure but a commitment to the well-being and prosperity of the people you serve.
Sincerely,
Austin Orogun
