A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and 2023 governorship running mate in Bayelsa State, Joshua Maciver, has expressed optimism that the newly established South-South Development Commission would address key challenges plaguing the region.

He emphasised that environmental challenges such as oil spills and pollution, as well as economic empowerment must be prioritised to improve living conditions and ensure sustainable development.

According to him, decades of oil-related pollution and neglect have left the region in dire need of intervention, and the commission presents a vital opportunity to correct these injustices.

Maciver further stressed the need for the commission to implement impactful policies that will uplift communities across the South-South and called on stakeholders, including the federal government and relevant agencies, to ensure transparency and accountability in the commission’s operations.

In a letter of appreciation, Maciver lauded President Bola Tinubu for signing the bill into law, describing it as a milestone that will strengthen the region’s economic and infrastructural growth.

 

He described the president’s action as a defining moment for the long-marginalised people of the region, cementing his legacy as a leader committed to justice and fairness.

 

“Mr President, this singular action of yours has sealed your place in the annals of history of the long-suffering peoples of the south-south region of Nigeria, as a champion of fairness and justice, as well as a man of your words,” he said.

 

Maciver also extended his gratitude to the President of the Senate, Chief Godswill Akpabio, and members of the National Assembly for their dedication in ensuring the bill’s passage.

 

He acknowledged their selfless efforts in standing up for justice and working towards the economic and infrastructural transformation of the South-South region.
