He said, “I want to let our people know that we need the police to build a better society. We should not stigmatize them but support and cooperate with them for a better policing.

“We are all aware that the #ENDSARS protest started from Ughelli, my own constituency, but despite the protest, no police station or other government properties were burnt and I want to commend you for all your efforts.”

Receiving the items, the Ughelli and Udu Area Commanders, ACP Lawal Adamu Shinkafi and ACP Adepegba Adetoye said the visit was a booster to the commands, saying they would continue to do their best to serve Nigeria.

Meanwhile, the lawmaker inspected and commissioned electricity projects in Otokutu and Obi-Ayagha communities in Ughelli South local government area.

Speaking during the commissioning of the project, Waive said: “We have been able to restore light to the palace of Okobaro Ughievwen Kingdom, Obi-Ayagha, Agbowhiame and other communities after over seven years of total darkness.

“I will ensure that before my tenure expires all communities in my constituency will be connected to the national grid while Eruvwharen and Imode communities will be provided with a solar system in every household”.

At Otokutu, the lawmaker expressed satisfaction at the speedy work being executed by the contractor handling the electricity project. He assured that in record time the transformer installation project would be completed and commissioned.

The President-General of the community, Mr Nicholas Emurayentite expressed joy over the benevolence of the lawmaker, saying, “If this Rural Electrification Project is completed and commissioned, the economic activities of Otokutu will grow geometrically.”

The lawmaker also met and briefed Pastors who supported him during the 2019 election at Ughelli Kingdom hall, where he assured that he would continue to promote good Christian qualities even as a Federal lawmaker.
