Water Scarcity: Group Calls for Sack of Kogi Commissioner Ibrahim Oyewale, Lokoja Worried by the acute shortage of water supply in Lokoja and its environs, the Executive Director, Conscience for Human Rig
Worried by the acute shortage of water supply in Lokoja and its environs, the Executive Director, Conscience for Human Rights and Conflicts Resolution Idris Miliki, has called for the immediate sack of the State Commissioner for Water Resources, Mr Abdulmumini Danga for his inability to tackle the challenge.
The rights activist explained that it is ridiculous and unbelievable, despite the location of River Niger and Benue in Lokoja the state headquarters, water has become an issue. “Despite the billions of naira used to establish the current water facility by the previous government. The current government has failed to extend the water to various communities and could not even maintain it and make it available to the people that brought it into power.
“Water is everywhere in Lokoja, and there is none to drink as people suffer daily looking for water to drink, as the government put in place fails to provide water for them. We wonder how much it will take to maintain the water facility that we have and make it available for people.”
