Yenagoa—The creek along the ailing Edepie-Tombia Road,  linking the university town of Amassoma to other communities in Ekpetiama clan is gradually turning into a dumping ground for human wastes.

Motorists plying the road and the adjoining fishing settlements are daily exposed to health hazard as many of them rely on the creek for their domestic use.

The road with an intricate network of rivulets, which is the only access road by land to Amassoma, host to the state owned Niger Delta University, NDU,  and some other Gbarain-Ekpetiama communities along the Taylor creek and the Nun River, has been taken over by human waste and huge refuse dump, thereby making a trip to the university community and other adjoining communities, a harrowing experience.

Commuters plying the bumpy road are not happy with the effluent being discharge into the adjoining creeks.
