Delta North Senatorial candidate under the Labour Party, Rex Chinye BIOSE has expressed deep concern over the deplorable state of the Agbor–Asaba Expressway, describing the road as a death trap and a painful reflection of the infrastructure challenges confronting the people of Delta State.
The condition of this major road is more than an inconvenience. It affects lives, businesses, transportation, commerce and the daily livelihood of thousands of people who depend on the route.
For motorists and commuters, travelling along the road has become an experience filled with anxiety. Potholes, deteriorated sections and other hazards expose road users to accidents, vehicle damage, unnecessary delays and avoidable hardship.
According to Biose, government must move beyond speeches and political promises and begin to deliver practical solutions to problems that directly affect the people.
“A road should connect people, facilitate commerce and promote development. It should never become a death trap. When citizens cannot travel safely on a major road connecting our communities, then we must ask serious questions about leadership, planning and accountability.”
Biose stressed that addressing infrastructure challenges requires competent, knowledgeable and committed hands in government—people who understand the problems, can engage the relevant authorities, mobilise the necessary resources and, most importantly, have the political will to pursue solutions until results are achieved.
He noted that leadership is not merely about occupying an office or making promises during elections. Leadership is about identifying problems, developing workable solutions and ensuring that those solutions translate into tangible improvements in the lives of the people.
The Agbor–Asaba road, he maintained, should not require citizens to continually cry out before government responds.
COMPETENCE MUST COME FIRST
For Biose, the conversation about the future of Delta North must therefore go beyond party affiliations, political slogans and personalities.
The people must begin to ask:
Who has the competence to represent us?
Who understands our infrastructure challenges?
Who can effectively engage government agencies?
Who can attract meaningful development to our communities?
Who will speak when the people are suffering?
The answer, he believes, lies in choosing representatives who possess the capacity, competence, courage and commitment to work for the people.
Delta North does not need representation that merely celebrates political victories. It needs representation that produces results.
The Agbor–Asaba Expressway is just one example of the challenges confronting our people. From roads to employment, education, healthcare, security and economic development, the people need leaders who can turn problems into actionable programmes and opportunities.
The time has come to raise the standard of leadership.
The time has come for competence, accountability, purposeful representation.
Rex BIOSE: Competence for a New Stride.
Delta North deserves better.
