Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has commissioned the reconstructed 19.79-kilometre Buguma–Degema–Abonnema Road, describing the project as a major infrastructure milestone for communities in the Kalabari Kingdom.
The newly reconstructed road is expected to significantly improve transportation and connectivity across the area, particularly for residents and commuters who previously faced difficulties using the route.
Governor Fubara said the transformation of the road reflects his administration’s commitment to delivering critical infrastructure that improves the quality of life of residents while opening up opportunities for economic growth.
According to the governor, the improved road will make movement between Buguma, Degema and Abonnema easier, strengthen connections among communities and support increased commercial activities within the region.
Fubara expressed appreciation to God and the people of Rivers State for their support, noting that the successful completion of the project represents another step in his administration’s drive to expand infrastructure development across the state.
The governor also assured residents that work would continue on the Trans-Kalabari Road and other major infrastructure projects currently being undertaken across Rivers State.
