Infrastructure and security concerns in Delta State

Overview

Infrastructure deterioration in Delta State has drawn criticism from human rights advocates and governance groups. The Committee for the Defense of Human Rights (CDHR) issued a warning regarding the collapse of federal roads, urging the Federal Government to intervene and criticizing federal lawmakers and the Minister of Works for failing to prioritize rehabilitation.

Following these concerns, the Coalition for Good Governance has specifically appealed to Governor Sheriff Oborevwori to approve remedial works for the Amukpe-Eku-Abraka-Agbor Road, citing the negative impact of neglect on agriculture and local trade. Alongside infrastructure demands, Governor Oborevwori has engaged with military leadership to discuss security collaboration intended to protect economic assets in the Niger Delta.
