Governor Alex Otti has formally flagged off the 3.5-kilometre six-lane Okpara Square-Ossah Express Tower Road with a promise to extend the project to the Onuimo axis in Imo State.

Speaking while performing the exercise on Wednesday, Governor Otti promised that the road project would be executed with a standard drainage system, street lights, and others.

The Governor noted that the decision to expand the road to six lanes was to unlock the economic potential of Umuahia, the state capital as well as open up the city to greater economic opportunities.

He said that the administration has commenced payment of compensation to owners of the 130 structures marked for demolition as all the money required to pay compensation has been provided According to him, those yet to receive theirs should exercise patience as the delay could be from their financial institutions.

The Governor who said the government feels the pains of the people, added that he decided to delay the flag off until now to allow for compensation to be released to owners of affected structures.

Governor Otti while assuring that a quality 6-lane road project would be delivered, expressed the hope that the construction company Craneburg being a reputable construction firm will deliver a quality road network with a standard drainage system and solar-powered street lights.

He announced that the same project would be done on the Imo River -Umuikaa-Obikabia-Umuene-Ukaegbu road to Aba down to Ikot Ekpene road as an alternative into Akwa Ibom State to decongest Aba the commercial nerve centre.

The Commissioner for Works Engr. Dom Otumchere Oti revealed that the six-lane road will come with drainage, a sidewalk, and a stone base and will stand the taste of time.

He further said that the road would unlock the economic potential of Umuahia and thanked the residents of the area for their cooperation.
