One Teacher Teaches 170 Pupils in Delta State

One teacher is teaching over 170 pupils in Okugbe Primary School, Ikpide-irri in Isoko South local government area of Delta State.

Similarly, residents of the community had to travel long distance to Kaiama in Bayelsa State to seek medical attention.
Ikpide-irri is an agrarian community that produces farm produce such as yams, plantains, peppers and cassava.
During recent visit to the chairman of Isoko South local government council, Comrade Friday Warri, the Concerned Indigenes of Ikpide-Irri Development (CIID) had expressed concern over the negligence of the area and appealed to him to extend dividends of democracy to the community.
Comrade Obruozie Odiuzou who presented a speech on behalf of CIID, alongside former-president general of Ikpide-irri Progress Union and leader of the delegation, Chief Joseph Ubeleke, complained about lack of teachers in the primary school, and non-functional health care centres, solar street lights, water and markets, among other amenities.
Responding, the council chairman, Comrade Friday Warri pledged to do something about the plight of the community.
