Prince Dr. Peretengboro Klintin Bibaikefie, a renowned good governance advocate, has expressed his appreciation to Governor Sheriff Oborevwori for responding to the concerns of the Burutu people by remobilizing Setraco Construction Company to the Ayakoromor bridge project.
He commended the Delta State Governor for reviewing the cost of the bridge and ensuring that work resumes at the site, a move that has renewed hope for the riverine communities in Burutu Local Government Area.
“Thank you, Gov. Oborevwori, for reviewing the cost of Ayakoromor bridge and remobilizing Setraco back to site.”
Prince Bibaikefie also emphasized the importance of completing the bridge without further delays, urging the government to sustain its commitment to the project.
“We pray there be no stopping until the bridge is completed.”
Beyond the bridge, he seized the opportunity to call on the Governor to award the contract for the Ayakoromor-Burutu road, which would provide a crucial land connection between Ayakoromor and Burutu town, the headquarters of Burutu LGA.
“Now that that is done, we plead with Your Excellency to please award the Ayakoromor-Burutu phase of the road.”
The proposed road, if constructed, is estimated to cover a distance of 25 to 30 kilometers, depending on the final route alignment. It would play a pivotal role in improving connectivity and development in the riverine area.
Prince Bibaikefie further noted that the completion of the road would be a historic milestone, as it would end Burutu town’s status as the only LGA headquarters in Delta State that is not accessible by road.
“We are interested in glorifying God for using Gov. Sheriff Oborevwori to connect Burutu town, the only LGA Headquarters that is not accessible by road in Delta State.”
The call for the Ayakoromor-Burutu road comes as stakeholders continue to advocate for enhanced infrastructure to drive economic growth and ease movement in Burutu Local Government Area.
