HON. CLARK EBIKEME
EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN BURUTU LGA

the Executive Chairman of Burutu Local Government Council, Hon. Ebikeme Clark has vowed to restructure the LGA even in the face of dwindling economic resources. 

The Chairman gave the charge recently in his office at the Council secretariat, Burutu while addressing individuals concerned about the development of the Local Government. 

Chief Ebikeme maintained that in his bid to see that the common man also benefits from his Government, he has introduced a " Poverty Alleviation Programme" in which over 500 persons have been engaged across the LGA with effect from August 2015.

He however, opine that the over 500 persons are just within the first batch of people in the scheme but hope to improve on the figure when the economy waxes stronger, he said. 

Hon. Clark also spoke about his grandiose dream of building a new secretariat as he drives home the point that by the special grace of God he hopes to complete this project before living office and upon its completion, the present secretariat will be converted as a staff quarter." I hope to live a legacy that will stand the test of time " he remarked. 

Clark, however, pleaded with the good people of the the Council to be patient with him as the present economic situation in the Country is indeed worrisome and solely responsible for the delayed development even as the wage bill is at the high side compared to the allocations coming to the council. Hence he urged everyone to be patient with him. 

Making Burutu Local Government Council great is indeed a collective responsibility.
