Khana CTC Chair Moves To End Insecurity, Launches Neighborhood Watch
As part of efforts to combat insecurity, the Caretaker Committee Chairman of Khana Local Government Area of Rivers State, Amb. Marvin Yobana, has announced that Neighborhood Watch will be launched this weekend.
The chairman disclosed this during a stakeholders’ meeting with traditional rulers, CDC executives and youths groups at the council’s secretariat, yesterday.
He expressed his preparedness to work with everyone as a family, but charged the people of Khana Local Government Area to be law abiding and desist from criminal activities.
Yobana also emphasized his interest in human capacity building, providing adequate security and development of his people and the LGA.
Expressing gratitude on behalf of the traditional rulers, the paramount ruler of Nyo-wii Baen/Meae Bua Baen, HRH Mene Daniel Fyneface Nwidag, commended the CTC chairman, describing him as a blessing to the LGA.
In his own appreciation, the CDC chairman of Yobeeri Community, Pastor Samson Baridaga, urged Yobana to contest the forthcoming LG election, assuring that the people of Yobeeri Community would vote for him.
Meanwhile, the Bangha Ward 7 Simplified Youths Movement has described Yobana’s appointment as the spokesperson for Council of Chairmen’s Forum as a wonderful testimony of his political progress and commitment towards the development of local government areas in the State.
The youths movement stated this when they paid a courtesy visit to the chairman to thank him for his fearless, visionary, transparent and intelligent leadership.
The Public Relations Officer of the movement, Mr. Goodluck Pyagbara, debunked the allegation that the Khana CTC chairman was running a non-inclusive government.
In his response, Amb. Yobana assured that the Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, would complete his eight-year tenure as governor and that Khana people would always support him.
