Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, is set to inaugurate the completed Phase One of the Oko-Amakom/Oko-Obiokpu Road project on Friday.
Delta State Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, Mr. Charles Aniagwu, disclosed this on Wednesday while inspecting the project site in preparation for the governor’s visit and inauguration ceremony.
Aniagwu explained that the 4.7km road project, executed by the Delta State Ministry of Works, Highways and Urban Roads, includes access roads linking to the Second Niger Bridge Service Road.
The project aims to improve connectivity and access to the Second Niger Bridge corridor, benefiting several Oko communities.
He further explained that the road was constructed at an elevated level to mitigate flooding, given the area’s history of waterlogging.
The commissioner, Charles Aniagwu, highlighted the governor’s commitment to governance despite ongoing political activities.
The project is being executed by Setraco Nigeria Limited, a reputable construction firm.
Also slated for commissioning are Amaechi Agusi and adjoining streets in Asaba, handled by the Capital Territory Development Agency. These roads feature dual drainage systems to prevent flooding.
The inauguration is part of the Oborevwori administration’s efforts to expand infrastructure and improve connectivity across Delta State
