The Speaker of the Delta State Assembly, Rt Hon Emomotimi Dennis Guwor, has expressed delight and appreciation to the State Governor, Rt Hon Sheriff F.O. Oborevwori, for prioritizing the reconstruction of the Warri-Sapele-Benin Dual Carriageway.
The Speaker in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Nkem Nwaeke, following Tuesday’s groundbreaking ceremony, described the project as a critical infrastructure that will boost economic activities and improve the lives, security, safety, and productivity of Deltans and residents in the state.
Rt Hon Guwor said the deplorable state of the Warri-Sapele-Benin road was a nightmare to navigate for motorists and commended the Governor’s efforts in not only embarking on the reconstruction of the road but also fostering collaboration with the federal government to drive more development in the state.
He highlighted the significance of other ongoing projects in the localities, including the construction of flyovers in Effurun and Warri, saying that the development demonstrates Governor Oborevwori’s commitment to transforming Delta’s infrastructure landscape.
The Speaker charged the contractor handling the reconstruction of the Warri-Sapele-Benin Dual Carriageway and other projects across the three senatorial districts of the state to deliver high-quality work, adhere to international standards, and complete the projects within the stipulated timeframe.
Rt Hon Guwor who is the National Treasurer of the Conference of Speakers of State Houses of Assembly in Nigeria, stressed that every project embarked upon by the state government will further add value and enhance the state’s economic prospects and improve the quality of life for residents in the state.
Guwor assured the Governor and the people of Delta State that the Assembly under his leadership will continue to provide support and oversight to ensure the successful completion of all ongoing projects across the state.
The Speaker reaffirmed the commitment of the legislature to working with the executive arm to drive more development and progress in the state, even as he enjoined Deltans to avoid the antics of distractors but give full support to the “Renewed Hope for More” agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Sheriff Oborevwori.
