Policy priorities

The Bayelsa West Agenda

A Senator cannot directly control every road, hospital, job, or school. This agenda is written around advocacy, legislation, oversight, support, and working with the right agencies.

A.

Jobs & Youth Opportunity

Tombra will advocate for skills programmes, enterprise support, apprenticeships, small business growth, and practical paths that help young people build livelihoods close to home.

B.

Women, Traders & Families

Tombra will push for stronger participation for women, support for market women and small businesses, and community programmes that respect the pressure families face every day.

C.

Roads, Waterways & Connectivity

Tombra will work with relevant federal and state agencies to improve attention to roads, waterways, jetties, and movement between communities, markets, schools, and health centres.

D.

Education & Skills

Tombra will sponsor and support initiatives around student support, school improvement advocacy, scholarships, and practical training for young people in Bayelsa West.

E.

Healthcare Access

Tombra will advocate for stronger primary healthcare, maternal health support, outreach services, and better access for riverine communities that are often left waiting.

F.

Oil, Environment & Livelihoods

Tombra will use oversight to demand attention for oil-producing communities, pollution, fishing livelihoods, environmental justice, and responsible action from the right authorities.

G.

Accountable Representation

Tombra will push for town halls, constituency updates, clear feedback channels, and a habit of reporting back to the people of Sagbama and Ekeremor.
