The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) will explore creative means of tackling the scourge of water hyacinths in the waterways of the Niger Delta region.
The Chairman of the NDDC board, Mrs Lauretta Onichie, stated this when she hosted members of the Niger Delta Youth Assembly at the commission’s headquarters in Port Harcourt.
This was contained in a statement signed by the NDDC director, Corporate Affairs, Dr Ibitoye Abosede, and sent to newsmen in Port Harcourt on Friday.
Onochie noted that it had become imperative to explore new means of tackling the scourge of water hyacinths in the region’s waterways.
She stated, “In South-East Asia, water hyacinths are harvested and used to make beautiful artworks which are sold for profit.
“We may have to send some of our people abroad to learn how to turn the problem of water hyacinths in our waterways into a profitable venture instead of giving out contracts every time for the clearing of our waterways.”
She remarked that the interventionist agency was exploring ways to address the challenges facing waterways in the region in partnership with the Federal Ministry of Water Resources.
Mrs Onochie added, “We are liaising with the Federal Ministry of Water Resources to address the challenges facing our waterways.”
Earlier, the President of the Niger Delta Youth Assembly, George Godwin, commended the efforts of the NDDC in the Niger Delta region and stated that more still needed to be done.

Onochie who thanked the Forum for the honour of visiting her stated that no request from any ethnic nationality in the Niger Delta region was less than others. She noted: “The requests we receive here are the same: requests for empowerment and support, so every request is important to us and we will look at them.”
The President of the Anioma Peoples Forum, Mr Victor Osemene congratulated Onochie on her appointment as Chairman of the NDDC Governing Board, noting that it was a deserved appointment.
Osemene stated that the Anioma Peoples Forum was set up to unify the various subgroups under the Anioma ethnic nationality. He urged Onochie to use her position to contribute to the development of the Niger Delta region.
