The People’s Democratic Party PDP, have dismissed the comments of The APC in the state on the floods in Agbor town in the state as unfounded and misguided.
APC claims that the flooding in Agbor is a result of government negligence, while the Publicity Secretary of the PDP in Delta State, Hon. Sunday Apah, stated that the phenomenon was natural, caused by heavy downpour of rains in recent times.
“To imply that the flooding in Agbor is solely a result of government negligence is not only misleading but also a stark oversimplification of the complexities involved in managing natural disasters.
“The PDP government in Delta state has consistently taken proactive measures to mitigate the impact of flooding and enhance community resilience.
“Previous administrations laid the foundation for flood management by constructing essential storm drainages, and the current administration, led by Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has continued this critical work diligently.
“To disregard these efforts is to undermine the commitment and dedication shown by our leaders in addressing environmental challenges.
“It is disheartening to see the APC in Delta State capitalize on a natural disaster to score political points rather than engaging in constructive dialogue about solutions and collaboration.
“Instead of fostering fear and division, our collective focus should be on working together to support affected communities and implementing long-term strategies to prevent such occurrences in the future.
“Blaming the government for natural disasters not only misleads the public but also detracts from meaningful discourse that can lead to actionable solutions. The people of Delta State deserve better than political gamesmanship, especially in times of crisis.” PDP Spokesman stated.
