Rivers State Governor says his administration’s infrastructure projects will serve as campaign tools for APC candidates at the grassroots.
Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has stated that the delivery of legacy projects by his administration will give the All Progressives Congress (APC) an advantage in the 2027 general elections .
CDA News Nigeria reports that Fubara said candidates of the ruling party would be able to campaign on the achievements of his administration, particularly the infrastructure projects delivered across the state .
The governor spoke on Wednesday while commissioning the 14.5-kilometre Agba-Ndele Road and a bridge linking communities in Emohua and Abua/Odual Local Government Areas of Rivers State .
“I believe that what we have done here today will make it easy for our candidate that will be representing us in the forthcoming elections. When he comes here to campaign, more especially in Emohua, he will tell them: my party did this and my party did that. So it will be easy for us to win election here,” Fubara said .
CDA News Nigeria gathered that the governor described the road and bridge as part of his administration’s commitment to taking development to the grassroots . He noted that government intervention became necessary after observing the deplorable condition of the old Abua Road, which had subjected commuters to long hours of travel .
The governor disclosed that the bridge project was neither initiated by his administration nor by his immediate predecessor, but by an earlier government . However, he said he decided to complete the project because of his belief that governance was a relay race, with successive administrations expected to continue projects that would benefit the people .
