He noted that the project reflects Fubara's commitment to improving the welfare of his people, adding that the road will boost trade, enhance access to markets, and create economic opportunities for residents of both Rivers and Abia states.  

The commissioning of the Umuakali-Eberi-Omodu Road adds to the growing list of infrastructure projects under Governor Fubara’s administration, aimed at transforming Rivers State into an economic hub with modern transport networks and accessible roadways. The event attracted dignitaries, party stakeholders, and community leaders, reflecting the importance of the project to the people of the state.
