He didn’t sit back in Port Harcourt issuing empty sympathy. He walked the muddy waters alongside our people, wiped the tears of displaced elders, and felt every ounce of the agony crushing our rural communities.
When floodwaters tore through our villages—submerging family homes in Lueku, Luumene, Taaba and Lorre, drowning farmlands in Yeghe and Bera, and leaving our mothers weeping over ruined harvests, the President-General of Ogoni Youth Federation & the Nigeria Democratic Congress Candidate for Khana Constituency 2, for Rivers State House of Assembly, Engr. Legborsi Yamaabana could not sleep.
He didn’t sit back in Port Harcourt issuing empty sympathy. He walked the muddy waters alongside our people, wiped the tears of displaced elders, and felt every ounce of the agony crushing our rural communities. With a burdened heart and unwavering courage, he took our tears straight to the seat of power, declaring boldly: "Humanitarian relief must be guided by need, not geography. Ogoni people will never be left behind!"
Today, because one leader dared to stand in the gap, the Rivers State Government has answered.
We express our profound, heartfelt gratitude to His Excellency, Governor Siminalayi Fubara, and the Deputy Governor, Prof. Ngozi Nma Odu, for demonstrating genuine empathy. By dispatching essential food and relief materials to Khana and Gokana within days of Engr. Yamaabana’s passionate appeal, the government proved that our people’s cries were finally heard.
Now, let this warning ring loud and clear: DO NOT POLITICISE THIS RELIEF!
Floodwaters did not ask our mothers or farmers what political party they belonged to before washing away their livelihoods. Therefore, no political appointee, party leader, or middleman has the right to treat these materials as party perks or selective patronage.
Engr. Yamaabana demands total transparency: every grain of rice, every carton, and every single material must go straight into the hands of the verified, suffering families whose lives were upended by this disaster. We will be watching.
Engr. Legborsi Yamaabana loves our people with every fiber of his being. He proved that even before entering Rivers State House of Assembly Assembly as the your representative, your pain is his pain, your fight is his fight, and your voice will always be heard.
