Buhari Visits Imo State To Commission Roads, Other Projects
President Muhammadu Buhari is set to visit Imo State again for the commissioning of more signature projects built by Governor Hope Uzodimma.
Imo State Government in a statement said, the President would be in the state tomorrow, 13th September, 2022 on a one day working visit.
“Mr. President will among other things, commission the newly reconstructed Imo State House of Assembly Complex in Owerri.
“Originally built by the administration of Dee Sam Mbakwe (Of Blessed Memory), it is on record that the House of Assembly Complex prior to the emergence of the Uzodimma led administration in Imo by 2020 had been in comatose and totally abandoned for about 11 years due to its sorry and dilapidated state.
“To the glory of God Almighty, the Assembly complex has now been re-equipped and re-furbished with state-of-the-art equipment/gadgets and furniture that have brought it to a world class standard and in fact, the best in Nigeria today.
“The project was delivered by the world class Koran-DiResta Construction Company of Manhattan, that delivered the Nigeria House in New York, USA and ready for commissioning by Mr. President tomorrow”, it said.
The President was also scheduled to commission Owerri-Orlu road. “A 36KM Federal road constructed by 3R Government to ameliorate the hardship its age-long deplorable status had caused on the residents and road users over the years.
“The road which transverse through six different Local Government Areas of Owerri Municipal, Owerri North, Mbaitoli, Njaba, Isu and Orlu, was built with dual carriage, drainage system on both sides and solar-powered illumination all through.
“The contractor, Craneburg Construction Company, applied best of engineering designs on the project which now translate to the beauty complemented by all. The solid construction at the Njaba Bridge and other sections of the road, has restored confidence on motorists, who hitherto worried on transit along this route.
“The 3R Government’s road revolution in Imo State is truly transforming the road infrastructures across the State and as Mr President commissions the Owerri-Orlu road, Imolites are full of thanks to him and Governor Hope Uzodimma who embarked on the project, despite being a Federal road”, the statement said.
