Following last weekend crucial strategic meeting Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State held with the leadership of the Niger Delta Power Holding Company (NDPHC) on how to ramp up issues around stable power supply in the State, there’s an indication that soon, the issue of epileptic power supply in Imo State will be a thing of the past.
This good news is contained in a press statement issued and endorsed by Mr Oguwike Nwachuku, the Chief Press Secretary and Media Adviser to the Governor Uzodimma insisting that the Governor is not leaving anything to chance since he got the approval of the Federal Government to leverage on the NDPHC as a vehicle to generate, supply and distribute power in the State.
Among other strategic discussions, he informed that the meeting evaluated, are the strategies on how to facilitate the completion of all on-going power project in the State with the sole purpose of stabilizing electricity supply in the State and its environ.
The Media Aide observed that the meeting was in the know of the consequences of stimulating economic activities in Imo State which were brought to their knees due to the parlous activities of the power distribution firm providing the residents with electricity for now.
Engineer Chiedu Ugbo, the Managing Director of NDPHC led his other colleagues and the contractors to the meeting.
Ugbo, he noted, spoke about how resolute Governor Uzodimma has remained in his quest to provide stable electricity to Imo State since discussions were opened with NDPHC, promising that they are conscious of the timeline given to them by the Governor.
