GMO by Ogbuagwu-Ngbuka-Amazu Road, Gov. Obiano Shows Commitment to Okpoko People

We take pride in what we see happening in major roads in Ogbaru LGA particularly the GMO by Ogbuagwu-Ngbuka-Amazu road, a road that before the inception of Gov. Willie Obiano's administration was a subject of political razzmatazz used in deluding the people of Okpoko and Ogbaru during election. The then governors Chris Nwabueze Ngige and Peter Obi at different times had made promises and gave assurances to the people that they will construct the road but all the promises turned out to be part of the cosen Okpoko and indeed Ogbaru suffered before the willingly working governor, Chief Willie Obiano, whose love for Ogbaru people know no bound stepped into the plate. If there is one road that is dear to the people of Okpoko in particular, it is GMO by Ogbuagwu-Ngbuka-Amazu road and one can report that work is aggressively going on on the road now.
