Guma LGA Chairman Orwough Enhances Security via Roads

Hon. Maurice Orwough, the chairman of Guma Local Government Council in Benue State, stated that his administration is addressing security challenges by constructing and opening rural roads. During a news conference in Makurdi to commemorate his two years in office, Orwough mentioned that Governor Hyacinth Alia has instructed local government chairmen to ensure adequate security in their areas.

He reported on various development projects implemented across council wards, including the construction of a police station at Udei in Nyiev Council Ward and the reconstruction of the Daudu Police Station. Orwough noted that his administration has provided vehicles and motorcycles to support security operations.

He expressed the need for state and federal governments to take responsibility for road construction, as poor road conditions hinder security personnel's response to emergencies. Orwough acknowledged ongoing challenges and committed to completing projects and addressing community needs.
