As part of the efforts to consolidate his chances for the Ndokwa East seat in the Delta State House of Assembly, come 2019, State Assembly hopeful, Engr. Philip Ugbomah, has promised a developmental template as his first bill if elected, especially a bill that will provide for road development and constructions in the three Ndokwa Local Government Areas.
Engr. Ugbomah made this promise during a consultation visit to Chief Monday Onyeme, the Chairman of Delta State Board of Internal revenue, on Sunday 29, July 2018 in Asaba.
He said that the bill will be a developmental bill that will run for 8 years, as the development of the Ndokwa lands will beĀ hinged on a model of road development, which will provide easy access to all the communities in the area, and invariably attract economic benefits and investment, as such roads will provide for the easy interaction of economic investors and the farmers in Ndokwa.
āRoad development model is the fastest way our land will witness fast development, as with good road network, connectivity will be made, and economic factors that will help the area to develop, like access to our farm products will be made, as investors will access our areas, which for now is very difficult to access.ā He said.
āRoad map with listed developmental plan tailored for 8 years will be the first to be presented to the State House of Assembly as a bill on the floor, which will have the input of our people, youths, women and elders, village and clan heads, will be presented at the floor as a working template.ā
Engr. Ugbomah who is very enthusiastic to see to the development of the entire Ndokwa nation, also bemoaned the lack of job spaces provided for the teeming youths of Ndokwa land, as he promised to ensure that the imbalance which is melted to Ndokwa land by the multinational companies in the area is corrected as he promised to approach the companies for a 90% percent position of job spaces for those with certification.
Speaking further, he stated that to achieve fast development of the area, the average Ndokwa man, youths and women need to put more efforts to attract development of the area in terms of infrastructure, education, job creations, as the best model to develop the area is to create the spirit of personal development, consolidated with government presence.
He called on the Ndokwa youths to have more value orientation, as they must chest out to work for the development of their communities, contributing their various quotas, as the best man who is employed is he who works for himself, and not waiting for government stipends.
