The Delta State Commissioner for Works (Highways and Urban Roads), Reuben Izeze, has reaffirmed the commitment of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s administration to equitable development across all parts of the state.

Speaking during an inspection tour of ongoing road projects in Udu, particularly the Bezi Road and drainage project linking Aladja to Ogbe-Ijoh, headquarters of Warri South West Local Government Area, Izeze said the presence of the administration in Udu is a clear demonstration of its dedication to inclusive infrastructure development.

“We are here to assess the progress on this critical road, the initial design of the road failed to anticipate the volume of water in the area.

“However, upon discovering the inadequacy of the original drainage plan, the government promptly approved an additional 465 meters of drains to channel water to a nearby natural canal along the Ogbe-Ijoh–Aladja axis,” Izeze said.

He expressed concern over the pace of work, acknowledging that while some progress had been made, greater urgency was required.

Commenting on the recent protest by youths in Udu, demanding more government attention, Izeze said their agitation was understandable.

“The youths are within their rights to ask for more, that’s democracy. But I am here in Udu, supervising a major project already being executed. The claim that Udu has been neglected is simply not accurate,” the commissioner stated.

He noted that the Oborevwori administration is executing several multi-billion-naira projects in Udu, including the Opete Road project and the ongoing rehabilitation of the Orhuwhorun–Usiefrun Road, both of which are vital to the socio-economic needs of the area.

“Governor Oborevwori is governing the entire Delta State, and Udu is not left out. The Bezi Road we are standing on has a stone base, sharp sand treatment, and full drainage on both sides. It is a quality project by every standard,” he stated.

“Being a Warri boy means being a homeboy, someone who knows every part of Delta. The governor hears the grumblings, and he is addressing them gradually. Udu is not excluded,” he added.

Izeze emphasized that development efforts are being guided by fairness and available resources, assuring that the administration will continue to implement impactful projects across the state.

At Sokoh Estate Road in Uvwie Local Government Area, Izeze also appealed to residents to exercise patience with the contractor, assuring them that the project would be completed within the stipulated timeline.

Responding to complaints from residents about the pace of work and the perceived absence of contractors on-site, Izeze explained that the inspection visit was unannounced to allow for an honest assessment.

He disclosed that the Governor personally supervised the redesign of the project to ensure that the drainage system could accommodate the area’s heavy rainfall.

The representative of the contracting firm, Ifeanyi Ochuba, confirmed that work was progressing steadily and assured that the project would be completed within the agreed timeframe of December 2025.
