LG Boss Advocates For Youth Employment
The Chairman of Emohua Local Government Area, Dr Chidi Lloyd, has charged contractors handling local government projects in the area to engage the services of youths in the Local Government Area at their respective project sites.
The council boss who gave the charge during the inspection of some projects being executed within the council secretariat, assured that the Local Government Council would not hesitate to disengage any contactor that failed to employ youths from the area.
He said his administration had within its first one hundred days in office provided employment opportunities for hundreds of youths at the different project sites across the Local Government Area.
He called for increase in the number of workers at the different projects sites to have the projects delivered on time.
According to Dr. Lloyds, all contractors handling Local Government projects must ensure that the youths of the area are carried along in the project implementation, either as skilled or unskilled labour.
The LG boss directed the contractor handling the Ultramodern Emohua Local Government Council Secretariat Building to engage more youths from the Local Government Area in the construction work to speed up the ongoing casting work and have the project completed on time.
He also directed the contractor handling the Local Government Healthcare Center to intensify effort to ensure that the project is delivered within the stipulated time and put to use as soon as possible.
Dr Lloyd also inspected the ongoing construction work at the Local Government canteen building.

Rivers Judiciary Denies Issuing Court Order Stopping SOLAD from Swearing in RSCSC Members
The Rivers State Judiciary has denied a media report claiming that Justice Frank Onyiri of the State High Court issued an injunction order restraining the Sole Administrator, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas (rtd), from inaugurating the newly appointed members of the Rivers State Civil Service Commission (RSCSC).
In a statement issued by the Deputy Chief Registrar in charge of litigation at the High Court, Menenen Poromon (Esq), the state Judiciary disassociated itself from the report, describing it as malicious and fabricated.
The statement emphasized that the report was a falsehood and a misrepresentation of what transpeared in the court.
Poromon clarified that no such order was issued by Justice Onyiri or any other judge of the High Court of the state and urged the public to disregard the information, as it lacked any iota of truth.
The statement however advised the public to verify any information concerning the state Judiciary directly from the office of the Chief Registrar, High Court of the State, to avoid spreading of misinformation.
