PDP man hails Oshiomhole on projects A member of the opposition Peoples Democratic party (PDP) in Edo State, Mr. Nathaniel Awala has given kudos to the Governor of Edo State, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, for the quality projects embarked on by his administration which have put smiles on the faces of Edo people. Mr Awala who met the Governor during one of his inspection tour of ongoing projects in the state capital said “this is not about PDP or APC. I am a PDP man and I am congratulating you today because you have put smiles on the faces of the people of Edo state who never thought of smiling again. You see those houses that were submerged; many of the owners are coming back.” Speaking after cornering the Governor during his inspection of the 6-lane Upper Siluko road in Benin City Monday, Awala continued, “it is good to be good. The good you are doing now, you will enjoy it. You are not doing this good for yourself, you are doing it for the children yet unborn. It is not the money, because you cannot keep money for them but you can keep a good environment for them and that is what you are doing. What you are doing is a continuous process, we appreciate you and we will always preach the good news to others”, he said. Also speaking, a community leader in the area, Mr Iyen Godfrey said “Our Governor, I can see the development that you are doing and I want to urge you to continue with the speed with which you are going presently”. Earlier, while inspecting the level of work done at the Ultra-Modern Central Hospital, the Governor expressed satisfaction with the pace of work presently done. He however urged the Contracting Firm to expedite work in order to meet the deadline. Speaking to newsmen after the inspection of the 200-bed Accident and Emergency Ward at the Central Hospital, the Commissioner for Health, Dr. Aihunuwa Eregie said, “Work is progressing satisfactorily. Right now we are at the stage of doing some of the work outside but a lot more is going on inside. Some of the areas we had some issues with we have pointed out to those doing the work here and we are satisfied with the progress. “We have brought in state-of-the-art equipment for the benefit of Edo State citizens and for all those that will use this facility, we hope to finish it in the shortest possible time and when we equip it and the staff are brought in, we will definitely deliver on our promise to improve on the health status of the people of Edo State”, she said. On his part, the Project Manager, A & K Construction Company, Engineer Serge Hatoum said, “We are right now at the finishing stage. The glass is already here and we have started the laying of tiles inside the hall of the Accident and Emergency ward.” ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State checks the quality and the laying of tiles at the 200-bed Central Hospital Complex, in Benin City, Monday.
