Also speaking at the site, the South-South Regional Manager of Setraco Nigeria Ltd., Mr. JayJay, promised that the project would be completed within the stipulated timeframe.

The project, which includes 19 completed bridges, was initially awarded in 2006 during the administration of former Governor James Ibori. It has since faced numerous delays.

Once finished, the road will connect several riverine communities including Ifiekporo, Ugbodede, Usele, Inorin, Ajigba, and Ode-Itsekiri.

Governor Oborevwori said the project is expected to be inaugurated as part of celebrations marking the Olu of Warri’s 5th coronation anniversary.
