“We will continue to develop infrastructure in the state to grow the state’s economy and attract more investors to the State.

Governor Wike commended the Chairman of Stockgap for investing in the state. He expressed happiness for the major investment that will positively improve the state.
“I am happy with this investment. We will reconstruct the road leading to this facility as an encouragement to the investor.
“This facility will create employment and develop the economy of the area. We need to support investors for the good of the society “, the governor said.
He praised the Nigerian Engineers who constructed the facility, adding that time had come for Nigerian Engineers to be given the opportunity to showcase their skills for the development of the country.
While thanking the NLNG for their role in the development, he wondered why the Federal Government was yet to pay its counterpart fund for the construction of Bonny-Bodo Road.
