PORT HARCOURT (Sundiata Post) – Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike on Friday commissioned the Mbano Camp/Old Aba-Port Harcourt road to Kom-kom railway and the Iriebe Housing Estate with a declaration that his administration is based on projects delivery rather than media hype.
Speaking during the commissioning of the Mbano Camp/Old Aba-Port Harcourt road to Kom-kom railway, Wike said it was in fulfilment of the pledge he made to the Oyigbo people that he would fix the critical road before his first 100 days in office.
He immediately directed the contractors to commence the second phase of the road which will terminate at the boundary with Abia State, adding that the second road in Oyigbo Local Government Area linking Eleme Local Government Area would be constructed to improve the economy of the two areas.
At the commissioning of the Iriebe Housing Estate, Wike directed that the 50 units of higher low income flats be sold to the people at affordable prices without any profit to government.
