The Chairman of Bonny Local Government Council, Dame Anengi Barasua, says she would not be carried away by the peace that is being enjoyed in her domain, but would rather strengthen the working relationship with government security forces towards tying up all loosed ends that may have unwholesome potentials around the main town, waterways and villages of Bonny.
Barasua stated this when the Commanding Officer of the Forward Operating Base (FOB), Bonny of the Nigerian Navy, Capt. Muhammed Adamu, together with his management team paid her an introductory visit at Government Lodge, Bonny, to announce his deployment to the base and readiness to work with the local government.
Earlier, Captain Adamu who expressed satisfaction with the efforts of the local government Chairman concerning the fight against insecurity, said he was on the courtesy visit to seek her “assistance, collaboration, and blessings” towards taking the fight against insecurity and illegal oil bunkering a notch higher, vowing to amplify the efforts that are already on ground and ensuring the precincts of Bonny waterways and its adjourning villages are free from criminality.

As part of activities marking his 100 days in office, the Chairman of Ahoada West Local Government Council, Hon Iyekor Ikporo, has commissioned a solar water project at Odiereke Ubie Community.
Other projects commissioned by the chairman at Ward 9 of the local government are Late Emperial Majesty, Eze Robinson O.Robinson palace fence, generator house and security post.
Recall that the palace of the revered deceased King was affected by the recent flood, which destroyed the fence and virtually all his property until the current council chairman came to the rescue.
The ovation that greeted the chairman’ s demonstration of exemplary leadership could be seen in the reception accorded him during the commissioning ceremony.
In her remarks, the wife of the late monarch, Her Majesty Felicia Robinson,who could not hold back her tears, commended the council chairman for wiping away her tears.
She described the chairman as God-sent, and called on the new Eze Ekpeye Lobo 111, King Kelvin Anugwo, to honour the Ahoada West chairman for this singular gesture.
She also called for continuous support of the council chairman and the Governor of the State, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, for leading the people on the path of progress.
Earlier, the Eze Ekpeye Logbo 111, Eze Kelvin Anugwo, had commended the chairman for taking bold steps to reconstruct the palace fence and other facilities, and expressed gratitude to the chairman for his passion to deliver the dividends of democracy to his people.
While suing for peace and unity of the people, the first class traditional ruler, stressed the need for division among the people to be jettisoned by all and sundry, for the overall development of the Ekpeye ethnic nationality.
In his remarks, the council chairman narrated the significant milestones his administration has recorded within the past three months in office.
He said since charity begins at home, he has taken steps to provide basic necessities to the Ward where he hails from, contending that for a long time, the people of Odiereke Ubie Community had no drinking water, hence, his decision to provide potable and well treated water that would stand the test of time.
He said, “You can recall that when we came here canvassing for votes for our dear Governor, while listening to the requests of our people, lack of potable water in the area was a topmost setback and challenge and that is why on assuming office, we decided to address it.”
