Governor Okowa inspected the
Okpanam road and drain projects; the 4.4km Joseph Ebolo and Madonna road and
drains project; the 1.6km Ojife Street, Nduka Iloba and Casaloba Street. Other
road projects were the 700meters Isioma Onyeobi link road from sand beach
through Rapu road to Cable road and the 510 meters Stadium and Cap Wire roads
off Nnebisi road in the Asaba Metropolis.
The governor who said his
government was determined to take development to the people of the state
despite the economic recession, disclosed that a lot of roads and other
projects are either on-going or ready for commissioning in April.
According to him “ We have
about 398 km roads all through the state and so many projects are ready for commissioning
now, from the month of April through May we will be commissioning a lot of road
and school projects.”
While commending the
construction firms handling the road projects on the quality and standard of
work, Governor Okowa charged them to speed up work so as to meet the time
schedule.
At the Okpanam road project,
where drainage construction work was on, the Governor stated that the drainage
work would be connected and completed before the end of February, emphasizing
that the drainage project is very important to the de-flooding of Asaba Capital
Territory as it would remove storm water from Asaba.
He stressed that “a lot of work is going on with the drains, and l have been assured that in another 10days the drains will be connected. After the connection, we are going to see what happens when the rain comes and how efficiently the drains will carry the water."
