The Chairman of CDV Group, Chief Dr. Charles Mba (Egbeigwe n’ Orba), has expressed his heartfelt commendation to Governor Peter Ndubuisi Mbah for the landmark flag-off of the Ugwuogo Nike-Opi Nsukka Expressway dualization. In a statement today, Chief Mba emphasized the project’s transformative potential, recognizing it as a pivotal step in Enugu State’s journey toward economic growth and improved quality of life for its citizens.
Chief Mba conveyed his appreciation for Governor Mbah’s unwavering commitment to developing Enugu’s infrastructure, describing the dualization as a "genuine evidence of your administration’s dedication." He emphasized that this project, aimed at enhancing accessibility, reducing travel time, and decongesting Enugu’s urban areas, is a powerful testament to the governor’s vision for a connected, prosperous Enugu.
"This landmark project will not only ease traffic within Enugu metropolis but will also create vast economic opportunities," Chief Mba stated. "The entire stretch between Enugu and Nsukka is set to see increased residential and commercial development, making it viable for people to live in Nsukka while working in Enugu. It also adds a layer of security, as dual carriage expressways are less susceptible to kidnappings," he added, highlighting the multifaceted benefits of the initiative.
The expressway project is a key component of Governor Mbah’s broader vision for infrastructural transformation in the state. As part of a comprehensive development strategy, the road, once completed, is expected to bolster trade, facilitate easier movement of goods, and enhance overall connectivity across the state.
Chief Mba praised Governor Mbah’s leadership for recognizing the importance of infrastructure as a catalyst for progress, noting, "Your leadership has demonstrated a clear understanding of the role infrastructure plays in driving progress and improving the well-being of our people. The impact of this project will be felt for generations, creating a legacy that will stand the test of time."
Expressing his gratitude for the governor’s commitment to fulfilling his campaign promises, Chief Mba concluded, "Thank you for your unrelenting zeal in advancing our productive state forward. Your dedication to Enugu’s future is truly inspiring, and we look forward to witnessing the lasting positive impact of your visionary leadership."
