LG Boss Lauds PHRC Over Market Completion

The Executive Chairman of Okrika Local Government Area , Hon Akuro Tobin, has lauded the Port Harcourt Refinery Company Limited (PHRC) over the completion of the Ekerekana Ultra Modern Market in Okrika Local Government Area of Rivers State.
Hon Tobin, who made the commendation recently during the commissioning of the market, said the establishment of the market will go a long way to alleviate the economic burden of Rivers people, especially those residing at Okrika LGA .
‘’I’m highly delighted to state here that the special committee I inaugurated to expedite action on the relocation of the stalls also kept to the Terms of Reference (TOR) given them”, he said.
While appreciating PHRC for their partnership, collaboration and cooperation throughout the entire process of building and relocation, he assured PHRC of proper utilisation and management of the facility in the LGA.
The Managing Director, Port Harcourt Refinery Company, Engr Ahmed Dikko, while commissioning the ultra modern market, said, “the bold disposition displayed by the Council boss throughout the relocation process is worth emulating’’.
He, however, urged the benificiaries to make judicious use of the market for the purpose for which it was meant.
Dikko, who was represented by the Executive Director, Operations, Engr Sheik Mohammed, also stated that “the mechanism put in place by the Council Chairman led to the commissioning of the market”.
Mohammed further assured that the company would not relent in its obligations to its host communities as much as there are available funds for onward scale up of any project.
He also commended the Okrika council boss on his developmental strides and urged other council chairmen to borrow a leaf from Okrika Local Government Area.
