"Okowa's interest in roads construction is borne out of the desire to open up the state for investors".... Onuesoke 

"Indeed, Okowa is a promise keeper that is committed to the even development of Delta state".


A prominent chieftain of the Delta state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has described the approval for the construction of eleven new roads in some parts of the state, as a promise fulfilled by the the state governor, His Excellency, Dr. Arthur Ifeanyi Okowa.

An elated Chief Sunny Onuesoke described the gesture by the governor as simply adhering to his electoral campaigns promises of construction and rehabilitation of roads in the nooks and crannies of the state.

Onuesoke, who is a very consistent public commentator and environmental expert, made this known in a chat with the media late on Friday, disclosing that Governor Okowa's award, construction, completion and eventual opening of scores of roads since he assumed office, attests to the fact that he indeed, is a promise keeper that is committed to the even development of Delta state.

"If there is one area among others in which the administration of Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa has excelled, it is in the development of roads and physical infrastructure in delta state", he stated.

"Okowa's road imprints are now seen, physically, everywhere across Delta state".

"In Asaba, the capital city of Delta state, we have lost count of the number of roads the State Government has constructed or rehabilitated", Onuesoke pointed out.

"This administration under the able leadership of Okowa has even advanced further by going into roads in the difficult terrains of Forcados and Burutu including some riverine areas of Warri South and Warri North local government areas; places where Princes feared to tread", the one time governorship aspirant stated.

He disclosed that, "one novel thing about the roads embarked upon by the Delta State Government is that they seemed to concentrate on economic roads that would positively affect the economic fortunes of the people in the affected areas".

"Okowa's interest in roads construction is borne out of the desire to open up the state for investors", he explained.

"Besides, making the communities accessible, the roads are concentrated in economic routes that are very vital to the socioeconomic development of our people", he said.

"The roads will attract investors, create job opportunities and contribute to the development of the state", Chief Onuesoke pointed out.

Maintaining that the Governor's action is all-inclusive in carrying along, all the regions, Onuesoke added that the aim of governance is to please every constituency and every senatorial zone and not to pacify just one section.

He therefore appealed to the good people of the state to pug party differences aside and support Okowa in his enviable and sustainable developmental strides.
