Residents, commuters, and business operators in Effurun’s DSC Roundabout axis have expressed gratitude and admiration for Delta State Governor, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, following the opening of the newly constructed DSC Roundabout flyover to vehicular traffic.
The project, constructed by Julius Berger, has significantly improved mobility, commerce, and urban aesthetics in Uvwie, Warri, and surrounding areas
The flyover has brought unprecedented relief to an area previously plagued by traffic congestion, deteriorated roads, and economic slowdown. Residents have noted visible improvements in traffic flow, safety, business activities, and environmental outlook. According to Mr. Shuaibu Aduku, a resident of the Nehemiah area, “Before this work started, the road was in a terrible state… But now, with what we are seeing, everything has changed. Transportation is faster, business is faster, and life is generally easier.” ¹
Business owners have also experienced significant benefits from the project. Mr. Akpobofene Akatuba, who has operated a business around the DSC-PTI Junction axis for over 14 years, stated that the improved road network has attracted bigger businesses and increased customer patronage. “Our business has improved massively. Bigger jobs are coming, more opportunities are opening up, and the overall quality of this place has changed for the better,” he said
Residents have expressed their appreciation for Governor Oborevwori’s efforts, with many vowing to vote for him in the 2027 elections. Blessing, an indigene of Uvwie, praised the governor, saying, “May God continue to bless our dear governor for all the good things he is doing across Delta State. We pray that he will have more years to achieve even greater things.
