The
Minister of State for Defence, Mrs. Olusola Obada, has pleaded with the
Delta State Government to issue a Certificate of Occupancy to the naval
base located in the state.
Our correspondent learnt that the land on which the Navy Logistics Base, Oghara, Delta State is built, was yet to be surveyed and properly demarcated.
The development, it was learnt, had made land speculators to begin a massive encroachment into the premises of the base.
The minister, who spoke against the backdrop of reports that the community had serious frictions with the military, asked the governor to take an immediate action to forestall any altercation.
Obada, who paid a visit to Uduaghan in Asaba as part of her inspection tour of formations in the Western Naval Command, which she said started from Lagos, appealed to the state government to survey the land.
