This administration did not come to office to explain problems.
It came to solve them, Space and Time will fail if everything that has been done should be written in this piece, so we will begin with Infrastructure. 

In one hundred days, Chief Barr. Vincent Nemieboka moved governance from talk to touch, projects you can see, roads you can walk, lights you can switch on, and water you can drink. These are not abstract ideas. These are real interventions with real impact on real people.
1. ELECTRIFICATION PROJECTS, LIGHT WHERE THERE WAS NONE

For decades, some communities in Ogu/Bolo lived in darkness,  not by choice, but by neglect. They were never connected to the national grid. Not once.

Today, that story is changing.

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐉𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐒
* Electrification of Ikpo-Ama Phase 1 and Opu- Ama, extending to Ele Community
* Fixing the electric Infrastructure in Chuku-Ama/Nemieboka Community

Impact

* Homes now have light for the first time in history
* Small businesses can operate beyond daylight hours
* Improved security and reduced night-time risks
* Children can study at night; livelihoods can grow

This is not just electricity.
This is dignity restored.

2. ROAD & ACCESS INFRASTRUCTURE – OPENING COMMUNITIES

Development cannot reach people if roads cannot reach their homes.

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐉𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐒

* 280-metre internal road in Wakama Community
* 300-metre internal road in Nemieboka Community providing access to the Town Hall
* Construction of a footbridge at Opu-ama Community 

Impact

* Easier movement for residents, traders, and emergency services
* Reduced isolation of interior settlements
* Improved access to public institutions and social life
* Stronger community interaction and economic flow

Roads don’t just connect places.
They connect people to the opportunity.

3. TOWN HALL PROJECTS RESTORING COMMUNITY IDENTITY

A town hall is not just a building.
It is the heartbeat of a community.

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐉𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐒

* Completion of Nemieboka Town Hall
* Completion of Ele Town Hall
* Award of contract for a proposed Assembly Hall / CBT Examination Centre at CSS Bolo

Impact

* Restored spaces for community meetings, peacebuilding, and decision-making
* Venues for youth programmes, cultural events, and civic engagement
* Strengthened grassroots governance and unity
* A sense of ownership and pride returned to the people

When communities have a place to gather,
they find their voice and direction again.


4. EDUCATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE FIXING WHAT WAS BROKEN

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐉𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐒

* Rehabilitation of Wakama Primary School, previously de-roofed

Impact

* Safe learning environment restored for children
* Teachers return with confidence
* Parents regain trust in public education
* The future of the community protected

Education delayed is development denied.
This administration chose action.

5. WATER PROJECTS – HEALTH, LIFE, AND RELIEF

Water is not a luxury. It is survival.

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐉𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐒

* Revamping of Bolo Community Water Scheme
* Rehabilitation of Wakama Community Water Supply

Impact

* Access to clean and safe drinking water
* Reduced waterborne diseases
* Less daily hardship for women and children
* Improved overall public health

Clean water changes everything, 
from health to hope.


6. SANITATION EFFORTS,  CLEAN ENVIRONMENT, HEALTHIER PEOPLE

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐉𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐒

* Clearing of drainages and bushes along Ogu/Bolo access roads

Impact

* Improved environmental hygiene
* Reduced flooding and stagnant water
* Lower risk of disease outbreaks
* A cleaner, safer public space

A clean environment is a sign of responsible leadership.


7. RENEWABLE ENERGY INITIATIVE – FIRST-EVER GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION

For the first time in history, Iwokiri-Ama Fishing Settlement received direct government intervention.

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐉𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐒

* Installation of solar lights under the renewable energy initiative

Impact

* Night-time safety for fishermen and families
* Extended fishing and processing activities
* Reduced dependence on unsafe energy sources
* Inclusion of a long-ignored settlement into governance

This was not charity.
It was recognition.

In 100 days, Chief Barr. Vincent Nemieboka proved one thing clearly:

Leadership is not what you promise

Leadership is what people can point to and say, “This changed my life.”

These projects are ongoing.
The impact is already visible.
And the message is clear:

Ogu/Bolo is no longer waiting for development.
Development has arrived.

Good afternoon my comrades and Gentlemen of the Press. You have been invited here by the Leadership of the Former Labour Leaders Forum, Rivers state to address you of our position on the undemocratic rule in the state. Ordinarily, as former Labour Leaders we are not supposed to lead workers to protest the collapse of democracy in Rivers state rather than the organised Labour that is saddled with the responsibility of defending and protecting the nascent democracy, which is yet to see reasons in the state that we found ourselves. Tomorrow, 18th April will be exactly one month when President Ahmed Bola Tinubu in a most undesirable and absurd pronouncement on the Rivers state crisis declared a state of emergency and the suspension of the democratically elected Governor of Rivers state Sir Siminalayi Fubara...
