Onyeme At Arise TV, There Will Be Steady Power Supply In Ndokwa Land

The Deputy Governor of Delta State, Sir Monday Onyeme, FCA, has disclosed that strident efforts are being made with all relevant agencies to ensure steady electricity supply in Ndokwa land.

Fielding questions on a live programme on Arise TV on Sunday morning and monitored in Asaba, Delta State, the Deputy Governor stated that a lot of progress have been made to ensure stable supply of electricity in Ndokwa land, host to several oil prospecting and exploration companies, including the Independent Power Plant (IPP) at Okpai

He said, “on the issue of electricity, it is true that a large part of Ndokwa nation have no electricity for a very long time, we have had reasonable discussions with the electricity company and I can assure you that government is working; from Tuesday after the public holiday, the electricity company will mobilize and commence work, so, in the next two months, electricity will be restored in Ndokwa land.”

On planned protest by some people to draw attention to the electricity challenges in Ndokwa land, the Deputy Governor observed that such protest must have been based on information that work would soon commence for electricity to be restored in the area.

He alluded that such protest could be political as it is baseless due to the fact that there is work in progress peacefully and diplomatically for the people to have electricity.
