While commending His Excellency Governor Siminalayi Fubara for his giant strides in provision of infrastructures, Snr. Comrade Amb Emeni Ibe said that it is noteworthy to draw his attention and that of his Chief of Staff, Rt Hon Edison Ogerenye Ehie, to the necessity of dualizing the Ahoada – Abua Road, the construction of the Udebu – Ihuaba – Ihuama road network.
The President General of the Orashi National Congress also called on the Governor for the total review of the construction of Old Port Harcourt Road in Ahoada, and for it to be completely dualized.
He said this, bearing in mind the much expansive Ahoada Industrial Layout, which sooner than later, will witness developments and will undoubtedly open up the entire over – bridge even beyond the East West Road. He equally called for the construction of Ogbele Community Secondary School and other internal road projects around the Orashi area.
