Ugolor Calls for Action on Oghara's Flooding and Roads

Rev. David Ugolor, publisher of The Common Good Letter, called on traditional rulers, community leaders, and residents of Oghara, Ethiope West Local Government Area in Delta State to use Governor Sheriff Oborevwori's visit for the commissioning of the Oghareki Model Technical College to address pressing developmental challenges. Ugolor emphasized the need for concrete commitments from the state government regarding flooding, deteriorating road infrastructure, inadequate drainage systems, and the development of the Delta State University Teaching Hospital.

He urged community leaders to present these concerns directly to Governor Oborevwori, demanding clear timelines and responsible officials for implementing solutions. Ugolor also raised concerns about a N20 million budget provision for flood and erosion control measures, questioning the zero expenditure recorded against this allocation.

He called for transparency in the management of public funds and urged the Ethiope West Local Government Council to publish details of its annual revenue and expenditures, advocating for independent investigations into any allegations of fund misuse.
