He however called on governor Nyesom Wike to complete the ongoing road projects in the area and install speed breakers on the completed ones, to reduce the rate of accidents.

” the governor of Rivers state promised to build old Port Harcourt Aba Road , the road is up to 80% completion. The road is suppose to be double coated, it has not been done. We are also expecting that the government must put a speed breaker on that road because of the level of accident involving school children. And Umusi at Eleme road is also between 60% done. These are the roads that the governor promised Oyibo people ” he stated.
