He added that the re-approval of Isaba, and Aladja road is on and that the contractors would return to the site.
The Governor further stressed that Deltans should stand for equity, peace and understanding, as it is the only way to maintain understanding among every senatorial district.
He said other senatorial districts did their eight years tenure, so Delta North should be given its share of eight years, which is the only means to ensure equity and peaceful rapport among everyone.
