Mr Lawal further reiterated that Governor Fubara’s visionary leadership resonates deeply with his administration’s commitment to transforming the social and economic infrastructures in Zamfara State.

“We share a common vision that robust infrastructure is fundamental to nurturing economic activities and uplifting the standard of living of our people. In Zamfara, we are making remarkable strides by constructing and rehabilitating key projects throughout the state.

“I commend Governor Fubara for his commitment to the development of Rivers State. This dedication to creating a better future for your people is genuinely inspiring and a model for other states to emulate.

“Once again, I thank His Excellency for the honor of being part of this significant event. I am confident that the Opobo Ring Road and Bridges will bring lasting benefits to the people of Opobo and contribute significantly to the overall development of Rivers State,” Governor Lawal stressed.

Earlier, Governor Fubara expressed gratitude to the Zamfara governor for accepting the invitation to serve as the guest of honour.

Mr Fubara stated that the previous administration launched the project to construct the Opobo Ring Road and bridges on 28 May, 2023. “We took over the project redesign and upgraded it to the current standard. This project is personally significant to me, and I am delighted to inaugurate it. It brings me great joy.”
