Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has kickstarted a N30.4 billion road project transversing nine Kalabari Communities

The Buguma-Abalama-Tema-Degema-Abonnema Road project was flagged off by the former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Henry Odein Ajumogobia, SAN, on Friday

During the flag off, Governor fubara stated that when the Emohua-Tema Junction road project was being inaugurated, that Kalabari people requested his gracious consideration to reconstruct the axis of the Buguma-Abalama-Tema-Degema-Abonnema Road

The Governor said he listens to the people, that why he is doing it

"I want you to understand something today. It takes one who loves you to do this. In my place, the only thing that I have done is the Ring Road, which is less than N10billion. The other section of the road is the Kalaibiama and the connection that we want to do in Epellema. It is also less than N21billion.

"But this government, not me, has already committed N225billion for the construction of the Trans-Kalabari Road. This government is also committing another N30.4billion for the Buguma-Abalama-Tema-Degema-Abonnema Road.

"What is the government trying to tell you? It is telling you that the government loves you, genuinely. So, no amount of social media attack from those who worked under me, that I don't want to say the kind of terrible things they did, will change that. Our love for you is pure, and our mission is to make sure that every sector, every section of this State is developed equally."

The project is a 19.7km long road. It is awarded to Julius Berger Nigeria Limited at the cost of N30.4billion. The Rivers state government have already paid 30% percent of this project cost

On Governor Fubara's invitation, Obong of Calabar, His Eminence, Edidem Ekpo Okon Abasi-Otu V, commissioned the Palace of Eze Oha Apara IV who is also the Chairman, Rivers State Council of Traditional Rulers, HRM Eze Chike Worlu Wodo.

During the inauguration, the Governor said he believes disagreements are natural in politics, but he will never deny any part of the State public amenities or government support. He emphasized that public funds should be used to improve the lives of all Rivers people.

He was speaking in response to insinuations in some quarters about his generous ex*****on of projects in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area, given the fierce political antagonism staged against him by some political leaders.

Governor Fubara said: "Like they said, if it were in other cases, I wouldn't be interested. No, no, no. I don't play politics that way. He's our chairman, he's from Rivers State, and whatever we are doing, it is not my personal fund; it is the resources of the State. We should apply it for the betterment of our State.

"The only thing I will ask you in return is: continue to support this administration. Be law- abiding. That is the only way we can get more progress and development into your communities. No matter the level of provocation, try to control your temper. We don't use fight to resolve fight. You use peace, apply it well using the Artificial Intelligence (AI) method to defeat troublemakers."

Governor Fubara expressed delight to have accomplished the palace for the good people of Apara Kingdom, which stands as a proof of the recognition and respect shown to the traditional institution in the State, and described the palace as a beautiful symbol of the respectable status that kings of the State should have to hold their place of pride among their peers.
