ASABA—KOKO community in Warri North Local Government Area, Delta State, has called on Nationa Assembly members to step up the passage of the bill for the establishment of Federal Polytechnic, Koko.

Chairman of the community, Mr David Esimaje, made the request while commending the doggedness and foresight of the member representing Warri Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Mr. Daniel Reyenieju, in proposing the bill.

He said the proposed polytechnic would revive the economic and social life of Koko, the headquarters of the local government, noting, “Moving such a bill shows that the lawmaker is a brilliant  legislator with productive ideas”

The chairman noted that the community had contributed over 40 percent to the national economy and deserves one of such federal government projects.

According to him: “If approved and completed, the proposed federal polytechnic with Koko- Lagos road project will usher economic development and make life more meaningful to the people.”
