CONTRACTORS handling the Okpuno-Urum-Amanuke -Achalla Road have pledged to deliver the project in five month’s time.

The project is located in the Awka North Local Government Area, LGA.

Leo Okoye, project director, explained that they had completed the drainages and other earthworks and would work toward completing the job within five months.

Okoye said the 2.3Km of the road was ready for immediate asphalting, while the other parts would be delivered as scheduled and within specification.

Governor Willie Obiano, who paid unscheduled visits at the project site, directed immediate asphalting of the 15.9km road with 20m Bridge.

A stalwart in Awka North, Chief Godson Ezenagu said the commitment of Obiano toward completing the project was not in doubt.

Meanwhile, Obiano has directed contractor handling Agbaja Abatete-Oraukwu /Alor Junction road to speed up construction and deliver according to specification.

He urged the contractor to complete asphalting, at least 1Km before the heavy rain.

Tochukwu Kalu, site engineer of the firm handling the project, re-assured that they were committed to delivering quality project on schedule.

An indegene of Abatete, Prof. Omaliko thanked Obiano for the project, saying the completion would help to decongest traffic usually experienced at major junctions in Idemili area.
