Residents of Effurun in Uvwie local government area of Delta state have called on the state government to put measures in place, in ensuring that the incessant night robbery under the community bridge is put to an end.

The residents lamented the state of robbery in the area while speaking with Galaxy TV's correspondent who had visited the bridge which was commissioned by the Uduaghan administration.

Speaking on the issue, some resident said night robbery have been rampant as a result of the darkness under the bridge.

Meanwhile, a community leader who trades under the bridge said the incessant robbery has made it difficult for them to go out at night.

When contacted, the Delta commissioner for works Mr. James Augoye said the state government have received an official complaint from the local government which they intend to implement before December.
