He<br \/>\nexplained that the road runs through Avu- Adapalm-Etekuru in Imo State to Ogba\/Egbema Local Government Area of Rivers State.<\/p>\n<p>The NDDC Chief Executive Officer noted that the 24-kilometre dual carriage\u00a0way was a very important project for the NDDC and the Niger<br \/>\nDelta, &#8220;because it links rural communities in the oil-producing areas of Imo\u00a0and Rivers states.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Akwa charged the contractor to return to site immediately as the NDDC was\u00a0committed to building sustainable regional infrastructure,<br \/>\nespecially in the oil-producing areas. He said: &#8220;I have directed the contractor\u00a0to report to the NDDC headquarters in Port Harcourt so that<br \/>\nwe can work out the details of what needs to be done to complete the project.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the challenges facing the project, the contractor Engr. Denis\u00a0Odadah, appealed for the payment of outstanding Interim Payment<br \/>\nCertificates, IPCs, noting that the delays in funding was a major impediment\u00a0to the completion of the project.<\/p>\n<p>The NDDC boss also inspected the completed 8-kilometre Obinze-Umuokanne Road\u00a0with concrete drains, in Owerri West Local Government Area,<br \/>\nconnecting several food-producing communities.<\/p>\n<p>At the NDDC Imo State Office in Owerri, the Interim Administrator, who was\u00a0taken round the premises and facilities by the Director of the State<br \/>\nOffice, Mr. Peter Edieya, urged the staff to cultivate a good maintenance\u00a0culture.<\/p>\n<p>Akwa charged the management and staff to be proactive and takefacilities in their offices as their own by taking good care of them. Heurged them to consider themselves as ambassadors of the people that should work harmoniously with stakeholders and fellow staff for a better Niger\u00a0Delta Region.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Interim Administrator of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, Mr Efiong Akwa, says the Commission will put in more efforts to ensure the completion of the 24-kilometre dual carriage&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":78933,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-78932","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-other-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>We Will Complete Imo-Rivers Link Road - NDDC Boss - Pointblank News<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/other-news\/we-will-complete-imo-rivers-link-road-nddc-boss\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"We Will Complete Imo-Rivers Link Road - NDDC Boss - Pointblank News\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Interim Administrator of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, Mr Efiong Akwa, says the Commission will put in more efforts to ensure the completion of the 24-kilometre dual carriage&hellip;\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/other-news\/we-will-complete-imo-rivers-link-road-nddc-boss\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Pointblank News\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-03-03T22:25:30+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/images290.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"554\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"554\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Our Reporter\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Our Reporter\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/other-news\/we-will-complete-imo-rivers-link-road-nddc-boss\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/other-news\/we-will-complete-imo-rivers-link-road-nddc-boss\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Our Reporter\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/#\/schema\/person\/ba61acbe7e8967bcf3f3ba603d9db23c\"},\"headline\":\"We Will Complete Imo-Rivers Link Road &#8211;
