Cross River State Governor Bassey Otu has conducted an on-the-spot physical assessment of severe flooding along the Jonathan Bypass in Calabar. Finding many residents stranded due to rising water levels, the Governor issued an immediate directive to the Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure to deploy engineering teams and mobilize emergency remedial drainage interventions to restore access.
Unplanned urban expansions and blocked storm drains cause sudden, severe seasonal flooding, cutting off critical transport routes and damaging local businesses. Executing immediate, state-funded civil engineering repairs provides rapid relief to commuters while technical teams design more resilient, long-term drainage systems to control the rising water levels.
This emergency public works intervention highlights a highly responsive approach to disaster management and urban infrastructure preservation. By keeping the executive leadership directly involved in monitoring infrastructure failures on the ground, the administration ensures swift public service delivery and protects lives and livelihoods.
