Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha has assured that all ongoing and abandoned projects in the state would be completed before new contracts are awarded.

The governor said this while addressing contractors handling several projects for the state government at the Multi Purpose Hall, Owerri.
He enjoined all contractors to go back to site and complete the projects, as the present administration would live up to agreement to pay for all completed projects.

Governor Okorocha, however, stated that government would not hesitate to revoke any non-performing contract and would bring those involved in shady deals to book.

He urged contractors handling big projects to adopt a social responsibility project like beautification of an area and beckoned on all foreign contractors to live in a residence in the state.

Imo governor further revealed that plans were on the way to construct two modern car parks in the state capital, 13 new roads, including complete dualization of Owerri – Okigwe Road, Owerri – Orlu Road and Nkwerre – Amaraku Road and the relocation of state branches of the Police Headquarters, State Security Service (SSS) and the Prison.

Responding on behalf of others, Chief John Enyogasi assured the governor that the contractors would go back to site to complete the projects pledging their support to the Rescue Mission Agenda of the present administration.
