Chairman of Warri South Local Government Area, Dr. Michael Tidi, has commended Governor Sheriff Oborevwrori led Delta State Executive Council, for approving the reconstruction of some roads in Warri, saying the roads are strategic to the socio – economic revival of the Oil City.
The Delta State Executive Council, presided over by Governor Sheriff Oborevwrori, at his inaugural meeting held in Asaba Wednesday August 30, approved the reconstruction of Upper – Lower Erejuwa Road, rehabilitation of Esisi Road from Warri – Sapele Road to Estate Roundabout with spur, to Nana College, linking Ajamimogha, all in Warri City centre. Chairman of Warri South Local Government Area, Dr. Michael Tidi, who was apparently delighted with the announcement, stated Wednesday night, that Governor Oborevwrori, has begun his promise to bring back the lost glory of Warri, with the planned reconstruction of the aforementioned roads.
The Warri South Council Chief Executive, recalled several remedial works done by his administration with limited resources, through direct labour, to make the Esisi Road and Estate Roundabout motorable. According to Dr. Tidi, the Upper – Lower Erejuwa Road constructed several decades ago by the late Samuel Ogbemudia administration of the defunct Bendel State, Esisi Road and Ajamimogha, connect major markets and other vital commercial investments in Warri, which is the economic nerve center of Delta state. He called on residents of Warri, particularly people of the area where the roads will be reconstructed, to support the actualization, expressing optimism that Warri will witness the M.O.R.E agenda of Governor Oborevwrori.
