Bomadi Legislative Leader Petitions Delta Assembly, Reject Impeachment Notice Against Andaye

In a firm demonstration of legislative authority, the leadership of the Bomadi Local Government Legislative Arm, led by Rt. Hon. Wurukeseiye Doubra, formally submitted a petition to the Delta State House of Assembly, reaffirming their status as the legitimate and duly recognized leadership of the Bomadi Legislature. In a photograph capturing the moment, Rt. Hon. Doubra and key members of the House leadership were seen holding the petition document together, symbolizing unity and collective resolve in the face of recent political confusion.

The petition explicitly declared that all purported impeachment letters and related actions against the Executive Chairman of Bomadi Local Government Council are null and void, as they were carried out without following due legislative procedures. According to the leadership, any individuals claiming to have assumed control of the Legislative Arm lack both constitutional and procedural backing. The submission called on the Delta State House of Assembly to officially disregard such claims, warning that attempts to alter the legitimate leadership threaten the stability of governance and erode public confidence in elected representatives.

Highlighting their commitment to transparency and constitutional governance, the Bomadi legislators noted that the Legislative Arm continues to function in strict accordance with state laws and established legislative protocols. The petition serves as both a formal notice to the state assembly and a public assertion of Rt. Hon. Doubra’s unbroken mandate. The image of the leadership holding the petition collectively underscores their unity, determination, and adherence to due process.

This action comes amid heightened political tensions within the council, attracting attention from local and state political observers. By presenting the petition and visibly holding it as a symbol of solidarity, Rt. Hon. Doubra and his colleagues have sent a clear message that leadership disputes must be resolved lawfully and transparently. The Delta State House of Assembly is now expected to review the petition and reaffirm the constitutional mandate of the Bomadi Legislative leadership.

Andaye Approves Free SSCE Enrollment for All SS3 Students in Public Schools Across Bomadi LGA

BOMADI - The Executive Chairman of Bomadi Local Government Area, Delta State, Hon. Dagidi Rawlings Andaye, has approved free Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) enrollment for all SS3 students in public secondary schools across Bomadi LGA.

The Chairman made this announcement while receiving members of the All Nigeria Confederation of Principals of Secondary Schools (ANCOPSS) in his office at the Bomadi Council Secretariat. He disclosed that the decision to fully sponsor the SSCE registration—either WAEC or NECO—for all promoted SS3 students was a personal initiative driven by compassion and commitment to education.

Hon. Andaye explained that the policy was informed by his personal life experience, noting that he understands the financial challenges faced by parents and guardians, especially during this difficult economic period.

“I am a product of the streets and a very humble background. I know how difficult it is for parents and guardians to raise money for SSCE enrollment at this time of the year,” he said.

He noted that the gesture aligns with the Renewed Hope for MORE Agenda of the Delta State Government under the leadership of His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, emphasizing that education remains a key pillar of sustainable development.

According to him, the intervention will bring great relief to parents and guardians, particularly those in rural communities who are battling with the current economic realities.

“I experienced it firsthand. It was purely the grace of God that saw me through my education. You, as school principals, carry a great responsibility because the future of these students lies in your hands,” he stated.

Hon. Andaye further stressed that education is not limited to acquiring a university degree alone but begins from the early stages of life, where the character, values, and discipline of children are molded to positively impact society.

“Education is about shaping lives from the foundation. What a child becomes tomorrow reflects what he or she learns today and how well that learning is guided,” he added.

He concluded by announcing that all students promoted to SS3 in public secondary schools within Bomadi LGA will benefit from free enrollment for one SSCE examination (WAEC or NECO), describing the initiative as an investment in the future of the local government.

The ANCOPSS delegation commended the Chairman for his people-oriented leadership and described the initiative as timely, impactful, and unprecedented in the history of the council.
