The Lawmakers had deliberated on a Matter of Urgent Public Importance presented by the Member representing Bekwara State Constituency and Minority Whip of the House, Hon Charles Omang Omang.

Omang had informed the House that the Ugboro -Abuochiche – Gakem axis of the Ogoja – Katsina Ala Federal Highway has degenerated to an impassable state causing untold hardships to commuters.

The Legislator added that the situation has resulted in; “clashes between frustrated commuters and villagers thereby threatening the peace of the community.”

According to the Bekwara Lawmaker; “Commuters have resorted to diverting through Ugboro village and this heavy traffic has destroyed the already dilapidated internal road through Ugboro primary school.”

Also speaking, the Deputy Speaker of the House, Hon Slyvester Agabi, lamented that the deplorable state of that road has inflicted suffering on travellers including undue delays and stress. He however expressed confidence that the State Governor with his passion for improving the quality of life for citizens will address the situation.

Other Lawmakers in their separate contributions noted that palliative measures will ease the sufferings of commuters while urging the State Government to urgently intervene to forestall imminent increase in vices including criminality.

In his remarks, the Speaker of the Assembly Rt Hon Elvert Ayambem commended Members for their commitment to improving the lives of Cross Riverians through people-oriented legislation.
