Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has declared that the rainy season will not stop his administration’s delivery of critical projects.
Speaking after inspecting ongoing projects in Port Harcourt and Obio/Akpor Local Government Areas, the governor said that the state government should engage first class contractors for key projects because of the commitment to the scheduled delivery of projects despite the challenges of weather.
“The rainy season will not stop work in the state because we are using sharp sand for our roads. Though it is costlier than laterite, it is important for us to keep to keep delivering on our promises”.
The Governor inspected the Bonny/Nembe/Bille Jetty, Creek Road, Moscow Road Office Complex, Rumuokoro Market and Park, Judges Quarters and Dualization of Abacha Road.
The Bonny/Nembe/Bille Jetty which has a modern landing bay, arrival and departure lounges, police post, shopping complex and the parking lot is over 50 percent completed.
