Describing the Governor as a fisher of men and leader of leaders, the governor’s aide unequivocally pointed out that the appointment of Engr. Obasi, as Works Commissioner was the best thing ever that had been recorded in the history of Works and Transport Ministry over the years.

According to Igodo, in six months, concrete pavement dualisation of Afikpo-Amasiri Road was nearing 100 per cent completion, adding that, “Earth works from Amasiri Junction has reached Afikpo and it’s 100 per cent completed.”

He stated this in a statement he personally signed and made available to newsmen, a copy of which was obtained by Famous Reporters, in Abakaliki on Wednesday.

The statement reads in part:

“Hon. Commissioner for Works and Transport, Engr Ogbonnaya Obasi, a superlative performer, as passionate as he’s diligent, ‘Nwoke ji oru ya kporo mkpa’, in marking his 6 months in office, should be proud of what he’s achieved so far.
