Succour has come the way of two Enugu communities following the completion of a bridge project in the area.

The bridge, along Ugwueme/Umuhu Road was undertaken as part of the constituency project of Hon. Toby Okechukwu representing Awgu/Oji River/Aninri Federal Constituency.

In a speech while commissioning the completed project, Okechukwu expressed joy that it would ameliorate the sufferings of the people.

While lauding the community for the support they were given to him and the entire Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, government in the State, he assured that “we shall continue to initiate projects that touch positively on the life of the people.

“As elected representatives of the people, our utmost desire is to make the people happy by putting in place those projects that impact directly on their lives.

“This is exactly what we have done here, and our promise is that the remaining one bridge will also be constructed and this road asphalted.”

Earlier in a welcome remarks on behalf of the community by Pastor Precious Akachukwu, she thanked the lawmaker for the various assistance he had provided to the community in the past.

“This is not the first time he is coming to this community. He has always been here to do one thing or the other for us.

“Today’s visit is also quite a unique and eventful one because this project being commissioned today is very important to us.

“We are so glad for your quality representation and our assurance is that our community is for you and indeed the PDP. God will remember you the same way you remembered us,” she said.

In their separate remarks, the Traditional Ruler and the President-General of the community…hailed Hon. Okechukwu for the legacy project, pledging their unflinching support to him.
