In a statement issued on Tuesday morning, the State Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads and Public Information), Mr. Charles Aniagwu, said the postponement became necessary due to the torrential rain experienced in the area.

Aniagwu explained that the heavy rainfall made it impractical to proceed with the event as planned, noting that a new date for the groundbreaking would be communicated to the public in due course.

He conveyed the regrets of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, who was expected to preside over the ceremony, to all guests and stakeholders affected by the change.

According to him, the Governor remains deeply committed to improving infrastructure and the living standards of Deltans through the continued implementation of the MORE Agenda, which prioritizes meaningful development across the state.

“The State Government regrets any inconvenience caused by the postponement and assures residents that work on the Ugbolu–Okpanam Road project remains a top priority,” Aniagwu added.
