Bigchiefvibes Media Report


Inyoungchicha Community, a proud part of Unyeada Kingdom in Andoni LGA, Rivers State, faces an urgent challenge that has persisted for generations — the lack of clean and safe drinking water.


During a field visit on October 24, 2025, Bigchiefvibes Media interviewed Mr. Festus Joshua Renner, a youth and member of the Inyoungchicha community.

He described the difficult reality of his people, stating that “this is the water we drink from.” According to him, the water is not clean and has led to water-related illnesses among both the young and old. He emphasized that water is not a luxury, but a basic necessity that every human deserves.

Watch the video interview below — where Festus Joshua Renner calls on the government, relevant authorities, and well-meaning individuals to come to the aid of Inyoungchicha Community and help provide clean, drinkable water.

As part of our continued commitment to amplifying community voices, Bigchiefvibes Media highlights this call — urging the Rivers State Government, the Executive Chairman of Andoni LGA, Hon. Prince Lucky Promise Otuo, the Ward 7 Councillor, Hon. Joel Lambert, humanitarian organizations, and well-meaning Nigerians to take note and respond swiftly.

Access to clean water should never be a dream; it is a basic human right that every citizen deserves.

When the people cry for water, they are not asking for luxury — they are asking for life. The story of Inyoungchicha reminds us that true leadership is measured not by promises made, but by lives touched.


What’s your take on this situation? Shouldn’t every community have access to clean water by now?

Share your thoughts below and help raise awareness — together, our voices can reach those who can make a difference.
