Three Govs, PDP BoT Member Flag Off, Unveil Four Projects In Rivers

Rivers State will go agog again, this week, as the state government resumes another round of flag off and inauguration of four strategic infrastructure projects across the state.
The programme will last for four days, beginning from today.
This time, two serving governors from the South-East, a former governor in the North-East, and Board of Trustees (BoT) member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from the South-West will be hosted by the state government to perform the ceremonies.
The two key projects billed for commissioning are the Ogbum-Nu-Abali sandfill area/estate layout, and the Omerelu internal roads construction.
Also to be flagged off are the Eneka and Igwuruta internal roads construction.
The Tide can authoritatively report that the former governor of Gombe State, Dr Ibrahim Dankwambo, will perform the flag off of construction of Eneka internal roads in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area, today.

A statement he personally signed, yesterday, in his office at the council headquarters, Rumuodomaya, he Ariolu, said, that embarking on the construction of the strategic roads at this time in the life of the administration shows the love the governor has for the people of the area.
