During the Isoko North Executive Council meeting held yesterday, several key projects were approved, underscoring the administration’s commitment to community development.
Among the notable projects are the construction of 60 open shops at Otor-Owhe Main Market, installation of solar street lights at the Council Secretariat, financial assistance for indigenes with critical health conditions, and the immediate employment of a victim of Fulani herdsmen violence from the Uruamudhu community in Ozoro, whose fingers were severed during an attack.
Additionally, the council approved various empowerment initiatives, including financial aid for women, provision of farming tools, and agricultural inputs to boost agricultural productivity.
Following the Executive Meeting, Engr. Thomas Akpoedafe, Supervisor of Agriculture and Community Development, alongside Comr. Alebe Joshua, Supervisor of Environment, highlighted the significance of the approved road rehabilitation projects.
These projects include the rehabilitation of Etevie Community Road, Ogbor Lane in Ozoro, the Ozoro axis of the Owhelogbo-Ozoro Road, Uruto Community Road, Emevor Police Station Road, and three streets within Owhelogbo Grammar School.
In a statement issued in Asaba on Friday, Egware described these projects as critical to the socio-economic growth of Isoko North.
He praised Hon. Ogorugba’s leadership and commitment to the welfare of the people, noting that these initiatives would enhance accessibility, stimulate economic activities, and improve the overall quality of life for residents.
The rehabilitation of the Police Station Road in Emevor, in particular, has been widely appreciated by the community, as it will strengthen security infrastructure and ease transportation challenges in the area.
Egware reaffirmed his support for the council’s development agenda and encouraged sustained efforts to uplift communities across Isoko North.
He further noted that Hon. Ogorugba’s dedication to infrastructural growth and humanitarian assistance, in line with Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s MORE Agenda, reflects the positive impact of responsive governance in Delta State.
