The Niger Delta Development Commission has handed over two of its abandoned bridge projects at Akenfa and Polaku in Yenagoa Local Government Area to the Bayelsa State government.
The commission’s boss said the delegation, which included the Bayelsa representative, Denyabofa Dimaro, was in the state to formally introduce the new board to the governor and to inaugurate some projects.
He commended the governor on his administration’s developmental strides in the state, hinting that the NDDC was in the process of offsetting the N2billion owed Setraco for the Ogbia-Nembe road and that the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari was expected to inaugurate it in the second week of May.
