The Delta State Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, Mr. Charles Aniagwu, has welcomed the Governor of Delta State, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, to Agbor, describing him as a “bridge-builder” whose leadership continues to promote unity and drive sustainable development across the state.
In a statement issued on Monday ahead of the flag-off ceremony of the N59.7 billion Uromi Junction Flyover in Agbor, Ika South Local Government Area, Aniagwu said the project exemplifies the Governor’s unwavering commitment to people-centred governance and purposeful infrastructure delivery.
He stated that the Uromi Junction Flyover, alongside the Otovwodo Junction Flyover in Ughelli and the three others nearing completion at PTI Junction, DSC Roundabout and Enerhen Junction, demonstrates the administration’s resolve to tackle traffic congestion and enhance urban mobility across major cities in Delta State.
According to the Commissioner, the Agbor flyover will significantly ease traffic flow, improve road safety, and stimulate economic activities within the Agbor metropolis and adjoining communities, while also strengthening inter-state connectivity between Delta State and its neighbouring states.
Aniagwu, on behalf of the people of Ika Nation, expressed profound appreciation to Governor Oborevwori for siting the landmark project in Agbor, describing it as a historic intervention that will deliver enduring socio-economic benefits to present and future generations.
He assured residents that the project would be executed in accordance with the highest engineering standards, with strict supervision to ensure quality delivery and timely completion.
Aniagwu added that the Uromi Junction Flyover forms part of Governor Oborevwori’s broader infrastructure expansion programme under the MORE Agenda, aimed at improving urban mobility and enhancing the overall quality of life for Deltans.
