Following an interaction with a former Secretary General Chief Williams
Amuna of the Agbarho community in Delta State concerning the under
development and the joblessness in the community, all indications show
that the state government has not kept to their promise in that area
seeing that the community comes out of obscurity as regards poverty and
hopelessness. Meanwhile, according to the people during the Ibori tenure
a hospital project was completed and fully equipped in the community
but up till this present moment it is yet to be commission for proper
usage, this according to them will create job opportunities for the
unemployed. The only hope of job creation there is the Delta Glass
Company which is geared towards the production of glass though the hope
of job creation is minimal which is not up to 40% in terms of job
creation as a host community. Therefore, the people of this aforesaid
community are calling for the general public and state government to
come to their aid. The electricity in the area is nothing to write home
about for most a times they suffer absolute black-out for power, they
have also wrote to the electricity supplying company BEDC (Benin
Electricity Development Company) but till this day there is no reply,
government is come upon to see to their plight since this community also
have a resources where crude oil is derived. A railway line is also
pass through the community there they plead with the Federal government
to at least create a Station in the community since this can as well
create jobs.
