Fidelity Advert

The Councillor representing Ogbia ward 2 in Bayelsa state, Hon. Onem Tyna Miracle State has reduced the age long suffering of her people as she used the money meant for her official car to build a bridge linking two communities in her Ogbia LGA of Bayelsa State

Hon. Tyna who’s also the Deputy Majority Leader of Ogbia LGA said the project is the only was she could touch the lives of her people.

According to her, they were given some fund to embark on different ward projects as councilors.

In a tweet by Eko Vanguard, the Councillor narrated how people try to pass through the bridge; “If you drive from the other end, you will have to park, and then cross over before taking another vehicle, keke, or bike to your destination. This has brought untold hardship to our people and affected economic activities in the area negatively.”

“I met with the Community chiefs and told them i would like to embark on the said bridge project, rather than any other project that will not directly impact the lives of our people. They reminded me that the money for the project is beyond what was given to us. But I was determined to give it a trial.

“I said to myself, if this is the only thing i can do for the people as their councilor, then I must see to its completion.”

She narrated that when they project was about to be stalled as a result of lack of fund, she remembered we were also given money to buy official cars.

“But I know that the bridge is more important for the people, i used the money meant my official car to complete the project,” she sadi.

The news of her benevolence caught the attention of the Governor, Douye Diri who invited her to the Government House for commendation for her show of selflessness and exceptional leadership.

  1. The Councillor did an excellent work, may God give her more wisdom to help her communities more from their untold hardships. May God bless her with good health, long life and prosperity amen.

  2. Well done dear Honourable Councillor. If only we have many others with your kind of heart at various levels this country will not be the same. However, I hope the bridge is toll free not a way of making money for self and community chiefs.
