The Commissioner of Water Resources Bayelsa State, Hon. Tubonah Talbot; was seen recently in the public engaging in a fight with Street Touts over what they called “Destruction Of An Un-commissioned Road By The Commissioner’s Bulldozer”, a project which was made possible by the former IYC President.

According to multiple sources, the Street Boys demanded money from the Commissioner for tilting their road with his Bulldozer but the Commissioner refused by claiming that he had given them about N10,000 the previous week. The boys made their displeasure known by saying that the money he gave them was for securing the Bulldozer and not for repairing the road.

These series of misunderstanding among the Street Boys and the Commissioner’s boys resulted into a fight which later required the intervention of the Police force from Azikoro town in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State.

One of the sources, having witnessed what happened said, the Commissioner failed for not diplomatically managing the situation. He allowed his driver and his boys to blow the issue out of proportion.

Whereas, another eye witness said, the Hon. Commissioner was only massaging his ego to intimidate the boys with his swift call to the police for mass arrest”.

The swift response of the police at the scene made some of the boys scamper to avoid arrest but a policeman was seen trying to scale through a Residential Fence in other to get some of the street boys arrested.

Trendclock also gathered that, some of the arrested boys were later released due to a prompt call put through by the former IYC President.
