Nigeria @ 64: Remain Calm, Peaceful, We're Working for Your Wellbeing-Delta LG Boss, Hon. Andaye Tells Bomadians

BOMADI____ The executive chairman, Bomadi local government area of Delta State, Hon. Rawlings Dagidi Andaye, has again called on all Bomadians and youths in riverine communities to maintain the peaceful atmosphere during and after the nation's Independence Day celebrations on October 1.

Hon. Andaye made call against the backdrop of the proposed nationwide protest organized by aggrieved Nigerians over the nation's current economic situation, noting that his administration had put the machinery in motion to transform the locality into an urban centre.

In a press statement issued by the Chief Press Secretary to the council chairman, Chancel Bomadi Sunday, which was made available to newsmen, yesterday, the council boss was quoted to have said that he would do all within his executive powers to rewrite the narrative of Bomadi Council area to a place to be reckoned with in the Niger Delta.

The statement reads: "In the spirit of freedom, peace and development, I joined together with my people of Bomadi local government area and Nigerians in general to celebrate our 64th anniversary marking our freedom and self-determination as a nation.

"As a government, we will not rest on our oars until we set the stage for Bomadi to be reckoned with among local governments in terms of progress and development. Yes, we are determined as a government to ensure our blueprint of a better Bomadi is thoroughly implemented and achieved".

Remain calm, Peaceful

However, Hon. Andaye called on all youths of Bomadi local government area and environs to maintain the prevailing serene atmosphere and peaceful disposition, while lauding the youths for heeding his earlier call during the maiden protest that recorded destruction of both government and individual property in some parts of the country.

"I want to use this medium to once again, call on my fellow youths to maintain the serene atmosphere in Bomadi and environs while agitations and destructions may be taking place in some parts of the country. 

"We have a future, we have a vision to achieve and Bomadi under my watch will see the light, we will see the illumination in no distant time.

"Please, maintain the prevailing peace in all our riverine communities as we will surely smile and have stories to tell others about our journey to greater heights as a government and people", he said.
