Still waiting for drain to be cleared

Dear Editor,

I wish to seek clarity from the relevant authority responsible for the Better Hope/LBI Neighbourhood Democratic Council (NDC) once more. I had a letter published in your daily newspaper on August 16, seeking answers as to why the northern side drain on the Railway Embankment road has not been cleared. Since February, 2017 I spoke to the Chairman and his team concerning the blocked drain that is causing my yard to be flooded every time it rains, but to date nothing has been done the situation remains the same.

I would like the relevant Ministers of Public Infrastructure and Communities to look into this matter and find out why this particular drain is not cleared, when every other drain in LBI has been cleared. I am fed up calling the Chairman and want some relief before the next rainy season starts.

Yours faithfully,

Ricky Ram
