This is contained in a statement by the Commission, signed by Dr. Ibitoye Abosede, the Director in charge of Corporate Affairs. The statement quoted an interview at the Umeh section of the road, near Patani, granted by an indigene of the community, Mr Alex Ifure, who said that the quick intervention of NDDC was the saving grace for his people and commuters, who had suffered for weeks on account of the devastation caused by the flood.
He lamented that, apart from the road, the flood also destroyed their farms, leaving the farmers with nothing to take to the markets to sell and feed themselves. “Look at our market, it is scanty because our people have lost their crops to the flood.” At Okobe community in Ahoada East Council, the traditional ruler of Igbuduya Kingdom, Eze Ikaki Ikaki, said his people were all happy that the NDDC intervened to ease their pains from the devastation caused by the flood.
A motorist interviewed at the repaired section at Okobe, Inyang Victor, appealed to the Federal Government to look for a lasting solution to the flood problem, which, he said, was taking a huge toll on the lives of the people in the affected communities.
