The level of work currently going on at the Ikot Oku Ikono Fly Over project has gotten great commendations from governor UDOM EMMANUEL.

The governor expressed his satisfaction at the pace and quality of the work execution, when he undertook inspection of the projecton Wednesday.

He expressed dismay over the excellent work done as against some negative information that has been making rounds about the fly over project, adding that the firm handling the project has assured of completion and delivery as scheduled.

According to the governor, the project would have been completed sooner but for the emergence of covid-19 last year which ravaged the world and forced companies to close for business.

He however noted that the bridge when completed with all its adjourning structures, will be the longest in the state and called on the people of the state to appreciate the concept, brought to bare in the project.

Governor UDOM further decried the paucity of funds and lackadaisical attitude of National agencies towards assisting in infrastructural development in the state, emphasizing that the situation notwithstanding the state would not relent in the development of infrastructures.

Earlier, the Regional Manager, Julius Berger PLC, Mr. JUERGEN FISCHER, commended the state government for keeping to the contract agreements and assured that the flyover project will be completed in May 2021 while the adjourning structures, including roundabouts, access roads and service lanes will be completed in August.
