Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has charged the management of the Nigerian Liquefied Natural Gas Limited with the timely delivery of its planned extension of the Bodo-Bonny road project to the Ogoni section of the East-West Road.
The governor maintained that his administration was working hard to sustain the prevailing security enjoyed to make the state safer and also create a more business-friendly environment that will boost investors’ confidence.
Sir Fubara also recalled how effective collaboration between the NLNG and the State government had resulted in the facilitation and establishment of a renal dialysis centre at the Rivers State Teaching Hospital. The governor, however, urged the management of NLNG to increase their Corporate Social Responsibility to host communities by engaging more youths in their ongoing Train 7 Project with permanent employment and supply of materials.
Earlier, the Managing Director of NLNG Limited, Dr Philip Mshelbila said they were in the government house to identify and pledge their support to the Fubara’s administration while also exploring avenues to expand areas of collaboration which will boost both the State’s economy and their operational opportunities.
He said the 38km road from Bodo to Bonny Island, currently being constructed by the company in collaboration with the Federal Government will be completed by the first quarter of next year with a plan to connect it to the East/West road.All rights reserved.
