The Prosperity Government has completed clearing of 21km (phase I) of the Nembe - Brass road.

The excavation and bond wall works is currently ongoing. It will be followed by sand-filling immediately.

No where else in Nigeria do Governments surmount this environmental challenges to give the people roads. Our terrain is intimidating.

So when a Bayelsan Governor say, it cost more to construct a road in Bayelsa State than building flyovers elsewhere in Nigeria, it's an engineering fact.

It's evidently so; because, what is pictorially presently bellow is a road under construction in Bayelsa State, crisscrossing the creeks of Niger Delta.

Yet, it's as if Gov Douye Diri is constructing a creek for Bayelsans.

Looking for another excuse for failure despite the huge Federal allocation to that state. So how is Wike and Udom of Rivers and Akwa Ibom respectively doing it? Are they not in this same Niger Delta. He shouldn't worry, David Lyon is coming back to retake his mandate.

But truth be told, our terrain here in Bayelsa is honestly intimidating and at this point, we as Bayelsans should support our Governor for his boldness in taking up such project.

From the photos, one could see how swampy the terrain is.

We should pray for God to strengthen our leader to do his best in carrying out this project that will see the people of Brass connected to the capital.

Nua.
