The initiation of this project demonstrates the governor’s commitment to his promises to residents of Bekwarra and supports his “People’s First Agenda.”
Ekpo is also seeking the collaboration of Bekwarra’s various communities as the engineers work to fulfill both the governor’s directives and the SEA’s mission to provide electricity to every part of the state.
He urged the chiefs, elders, youths and all community members to take responsibility for protecting the equipment and installations once they are in place to prevent vandalism. (Nigerian Tribune)
