Combating Gully Erosion: A Transformative Step in Etsako Federal Constituency

In a resolute move to fulfill campaign promises and address pressing ecological concerns, Hon. Anamero Sunday Dekeri has taken substantial steps towards combating the rampant issue of gully erosion in the Etsako federal constituency. A team of seasoned professionals was assembled to undertake a comprehensive assessment of the extent of gully erosion across the region. This initiative, guided by a sense of responsibility and commitment, is poised to bring relief to communities grappling with the dire consequences of this environmental challenge.

The gravity of gully erosion cannot be understated. For communities like Auchi and beyond, it has become a pressing issue with far-reaching consequences. Chief (Engr.) Alasan Abubakar, the chairman of Auchi Land Administration and Projects Committee, emphasized the urgency of addressing this concern. He highlighted the widespread impact on properties, businesses, and livelihoods, rendering many residents homeless and jobless. This assessment initiative represents a crucial step towards raising visibility and prompting action on these ecological concerns.

Chief Alhaji Yakubu Oshiorenoya (Yakson), former Chairman of Etsako West Local Government Area, lauded the facilitator for his hands-on approach in visiting and acknowledging the grievances of the Auchi community. The presence of representatives from the Ecological Fund Office not only underscores the lawmaker’s dedication to his constituents but also signifies a concrete commitment to bring about change. His call for affected communities to compile their demands for degraded areas’ reclamation reflects a collective effort to address erosion’s devastating effects.

The assessment team ventured into the heart of the crisis, visiting gully erosion hotspots such as the Oshiomole-Osomeke Gully and Utsokwili Gullies in Auchi. This on-the-ground assessment provided crucial insights into the scale of damages inflicted by these erosive forces. Moreover, the team extended its examination to areas like Uzairue and South-Ibie, witnessing the destruction caused by ravaging gullies.

In conclusion, Hon. Anamero’s proactive approach to combatting gully erosion in the Etsako federal constituency holds the promise of transformative change. This initiative demonstrates a resolute commitment to environmental preservation and community well-being. By acknowledging the plight of affected communities, conducting thorough assessments, and advocating for prompt intervention, this endeavor paves the way for a more sustainable and secure future.
