Deadlines for Completion of Warri, Uvwie Storm Drainage Projects Sacrosanct – WUEDA DG
The Director General of the Warri, Uvwie and Environs Special Area Development Agency, WUEDA, Prince Godwin Ejinyere, has said the February 2024 deadline given to CCECC to complete the storm water drainage and road projects awarded to it by the Delta State Government remains unchanged.
Prince Ejinyere stated this in Warri at the weekend shortly after inspecting some drainage and road projects in Warri and Uvwie under WUEDA’s supervision, to ascertain the extent of work done by the two construction companies in compliance with the January and February deadlines issued by WUEDA.
The DG, an Engineer, noted that about two months ago, while on routine and unscheduled inspection visits to project sites, he gave China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation, CCECC, February 2024 as deadline to complete and deliver its jobs unfailingly.
He said to achieve this goal, he directed the CCECC to mobilize more workers and equipment to site, and increase the number of work hours per day, as the Agency would not shift the February deadline by one day.
Prince Ejinyere, a former Okpe Council Chairman and immediate past Executive Assistant to former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa on Project Monitoring and Evaluation, said another firm, Levant Construction Company, was also given January 2024 as deadline to complete and deliver similar projects awarded to it by the State Government.
He advised the two construction firms to complete and deliver their jobs within the stipulated time frames given to them, as anything short of that would not be accepted by the Agency and the State Government.
The DG emphasized that Governor Sheriff Oborevwori was very determined to rid the Oil City of flooding by the next rainy season.
