BERA FLOOD DOCUMENTARY: A CRY FOR HELP FROM MY BELOVED COMMUNITY AND A MESSAGE THAT MUST BE HEARD.

By: Dekoo Bari-iyedum Promise

A Personal Documentary Born Out of Love, Concern and a Passion for Humanity.
Bera is not just a community to me, it is my home, my heritage, and a place deeply rooted in my heart. Seeing my beloved community affected by devastating floods, with families struggling, homes submerged, and residents facing uncertainty, is a painful experience that words alone cannot fully express.

Out of the love I have for my community and the concern I share for the people, I personally produced this documentary video to capture the realities of the flood situation in Bera, Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State.
Through interviews with community leaders, flood victims, and compassionate individuals who have come to sympathize with the affected people, this documentary seeks to preserve a proper record of this unfortunate incident and give a voice to those whose cries for help must not go unheard.

This is more than just a video. It is a record of our people's experiences, a reflection of our collective pain, and an appeal to those with the power to make a difference.

A CALL FOR URGENT INTERVENTION
I respectfully call on the relevant government authorities, government agencies, emergency response organizations, humanitarian bodies, NGOs, and well-meaning individuals to come to the immediate aid of the people of Bera.

Our people deserve safety, relief, shelter, food, medical attention, and every necessary support required during this difficult period.
Let this documentary serve as a reminder that behind every flooded home is a family, behind every displaced person is a story, and behind every cry for help is a human life deserving of attention and compassion.

I may be just one person with a camera, but I believe that documenting the truth can help create awareness, encourage intervention, and ensure that the struggles of our people are not forgotten.
Bera is our home. The people are our responsibility. Their pain deserves our attention.

May the relevant authorities and compassionate organizations hear this call and respond swiftly.
Please tagg them.

DR. THOMAS BARIERE WINS SECURITY CHAIRMAN OF THE YEAR AWARD

The Executive Chairman of Khana Local Government Area, Chief Hon. Thomas Bariere Ariar, PhD, FCNA, DSSRS, Mene-Fiinor 1, has been honoured with the Chairman of the Year Award in Security by the organisers of Port Harcourt Magazine Awards, in recognition of his outstanding efforts in restoring peace and security across Khana.

The award was presented to the chairman at a ceremony held in Port Harcourt yesterday, where his administration’s commitment to tackling insecurity and creating a safer environment for residents was celebrated.

Speaking during the award presentation, the Sultan of Port Harcourt described Dr. Thomas Bariere as am ambassador of peace who has shown an exemplary lifestyle in his peaceful disposition over the years, which has earned him this year's security award.

Dr. Thomas' recognition comes against the backdrop of the security challenges he inherited upon assuming office. At the time, Khana was severely affected by insecurity, leaving residents fearful and, in some cases, unable to access their communities freely. Some families were forced to seek refuge in internally displaced persons (IDP) camps as they fled areas they considered unsafe.

However, rather than allow the situation to define the future of Khana, Dr. Thomas confronted the security challenges with determination, courage and strategic leadership. Through sustained collaboration with security agencies. His administration intensified efforts towards restoring peace and rebuilding confidence among residents.

Consequently, communities that were once associated with fear and insecurity have experienced a new atmosphere of peace, allowing residents to return to their homes, businesses and normal social activities.

His approach has earned him a reputation as a brave and decisive leader who confronted insecurity head-on and helped bring it to a standstill in Khana.

While receiving the award, the Council Boss expressed appreciation to the organisers and dedicated the honour to the memory of the late Master Philip Barikui, a dedicated aide of his administration who died while on active service.

“Let me specially thank the host of this event; we feel highly honoured. It is one thing to serve your people, it is yet another for the people to understand that truly what you are doing is what you ought to do,” the chairman said.

He further acknowledged that security remains a collective responsibility, stressing that his administration would not relent in its commitment to protecting lives and property.

“We are not ignorant of the fact that security is everybody’s business, but our assurance to the people of Khana and indeed Rivers State and Nigeria is that whatever we have done that has earned us this award, we shall continue to put all our efforts to ensure that our society is safe and secure,” he added.

Importantly, the chairman said the award was more than a personal recognition, describing it as a tribute to those who sacrificed in the service of Khana. He particularly remembered late Master Philip Barikui, whose death in active service, he said, would continue to remind the administration of the sacrifices made in the pursuit of peace.

The honour therefore represents not only recognition of Dr. Thomas Bariere’s leadership, but also an acknowledgement of the transformation in Khana’s security situation from a period when fear forced residents away from their communities to an era where peace and confidence have returned.
