“Other projects and programs under the scheme include construction and renovation of roads, schools, community and youth development centers, and direct economic empowerment of his constituents which are set to be flagged off in the immediate weeks and months ahead.

“Street-lighting generally enhances local security and impacts positively on the socio-economic development of the communities.

“The People’s Senator believes that our grassroots must be kept viable through deliberate government interventions and based on specific needs of our communities. This is a reason these projects are a continuing feature of his public infrastructure intervention strategy at the grassroots level,” the statement said.

It added that the interventions are being carefully executed in phases, appealing to communities that are yet to benefit from it to exercise patience. “For sure, none will be left behind. We will cover everywhere by God’s grace.

“As usual, we will continue to ask our dear people to always earnestly support and pray for their son, brother, and friend, the Deputy President of the Senate, His Excellency, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege for more grace, wisdom and strength to discharge his duties patriotically and for the common good of all our people,” Egharhevwa stated.
