GOVT. APPROVE 1BN FOR REHABILITATION OF HEALTH CENTRE IN IMO STATE, NIGERIA

The State Government in Imo state which is located in the eastern region of Nigeria has approved the sum of 1billion naira for the rehabilitation of healthcare centres in the 305 electoral wards across the state. The decision by the state governor, Hope Uzodimma is expected to take effect.

Meanwhile, there are also plans announced for the construction of a 135 kilometers of rural roads or five kilometers in each of the 27 local government areas of Imo State before the return of the next rainy season.

According the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Declan Emelumba he said  “In an effort to ensure that promises made by this administration are kept, the 3-R administration has simultaneously embarked on the reconstruction of these roads to assuage the worries of Imo people on the situation of road infrastructure.”

Such road that are attracting attention according to Emelumba are; Naze/Ihiagwa/Obinze road, Naze/Egbu road, Egbu/Toronto junction road, Warehouse/Emmanuel College/Orlu Junction road, Christiana Hospital Egbu Road, Stadium road Mgbidi, Aboh Mbaise-Itu Ezinihitte road, Ulakwo/Umuneke Ngor Okpala road to mention but a few.

WILL THE PROJECT SEE THE LIGHT OF THE DAY?

The country of Nigeria has overtime see its leaders make promised but could not fullfill it. So one will wonder if such funds will really go into the said development or be used for their own gain. These is a major factor as when the right people are not installed, such project cannot see the light of the day. Lets just hope this will not be the case.
