He charged journalists to verify their reports and be objective in their reportage and partner with the Assembly towards developing the state.

“We are partners in progress. I and my colleagues are readily available to see how we can partner in the nation building work that we are doing and I want to assure you that we will continue to partner with you.

“We are 29 members and the people feel we are able and capable of doing the task that they asked us in terms of representation, lawmaking and oversight of the activities of the government,” Guwor said.

Guwor, assured that the Assembly would do its best to deliver the best to the people of the state.

Earlier, the chairman, Asaba Correspondents, Comrade Ifeanyi Olannye, noted that the timely legislation from the House has spurred the state into a development hub and construction sites.

He, however, urged the House to facilitate the domestication of the N70,000 minimum wage law to ease the burden of the state workers who had been traumatised by hike in price of petrol and other products in the country.

“We are particular about the disability law, ban on open grazing, scavengers and Property Protection Law (Ban on Deve Collection) among others. We urge you to liaise with the executive arm and the judiciary to enforce and punish offenders to ensure sanity and deterrent.

“We call for legislation to declare emergency in the agricultural sector, thereby making farming compulsory for all civil servants, secondary schools and for communities to form farmers cooperatives across the state.

”Make provision for fund, engage communities for land and give civil servants grants and a-one-day off duty every week to engage in farming and then put mechanism in place to monitor their activities.

“We also want the House to look into the essence of the review by the federal government, the law relating to the power sector to ensure that the state power and energy sector receive adequate funding and attention to make electricity available to all household in the state.

“We are hopeful that addressing these and some other needs, would not only address hunger but create employment and enabling environment for more businesses to thrive in our state,” Olannye stated.
