INDIGENES of Gbekebor community, Burutu Local Government Area, Delta State, have again cried out to the state and federal governments, to as a matter of urgency, come to their aid over ravaging coastal erosion that has threatened the existence of the community for more than three decades.
The community leadership made a fresh appeal, weekend when the remaining portion of the concrete seawall protecting the community from the surging seawater succumbed to the devastating seaside erosion, which also swept away two residential buildings and a shop.
