Asaba, Delta – The Delta State Government has reaffirmed its commitment to the completion of the ongoing Asaba Twin Mega City project, a flagship urban renewal initiative under Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s MORE agenda.

The government has warned individuals who have been compensated for their land to steer clear of the project site or risk demolition of illegal developments.

The Special Project Director in charge of the project, Barr. Victor Ebonka, emphasized the significance of the initiative, noting that the two cities Asaba Waterfront City and Niger City are being developed by reputable companies.

Ebonka noted that the project forms part of Governor Oborevwori’s vision to transform the capital territory into a modern, thriving city equipped with state-of-the-art infrastructure.

According to him, the development would significantly transform the Asaba waterfront and contribute to the state’s economic growth, adding that completion of the project would be a game-changer for the state and its people.

“The twin cities Asaba Waterfront City and Niger City are being developed by North China Construction Company and Foklands Nigeria Limited, respectively,” he said.

Barr. Ebonka also issued a stern warning to trespassers, including those who had been compensated but were attempting to illegally develop parts of the land, saying; “I want to use this medium to sound a note of warning to them to desist from such acts. The Ministry of Lands and all relevant stakeholders have been duly notified. Any illegal development on these lands will be demolished”.
