NDDC Speeds Up Construction Of Kaa-Ataba Bridge In Rivers State

The construction work on the 1.2-kilometre Kaa-Ataba Bridge in Rivers State, being undertaken by the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, has reached an advanced stage and is expected to be delivered soon.


The Managing Director of the construction firm, Engineer Christian Emeozor, who spoke at the project site described the multi-billion-naira project as ambitious and impactful, linking the Khana Local Government Area to the Andoni Local Government Area of Rivers State.
Emeozor assured that his company was making every effort to complete the job expeditiously. He noted that irregular tidal waves had hampered the delivery of construction materials to the site and affected the schedule for crossing the remaining beams on the bridge.

According to Emeozor, the construction firm had made efforts to address adverse weather conditions, which had contributed to delays in completing the project. He promised that more men and materials would be committed to the project to ensure that it was delivered on schedule.
He said that, despite the challenges, the bridge project would be tackled with sufficient manpower and equipment to compensate for the reduced working hours due to the unfavourable weather conditions.

Emeozor expressed satisfaction with the conduct of the host communities, applauding them for their support and cooperation in executing the project. He noted that the project would open up the communities in the area, reduce accidents associated with crossing the river, and boost socio-economic activities.

He observed: “The bridge project will improve the quality of life of the people of Kaa and Ataba, as well as help transport farm produce, goods and properties from the rich agricultural area.”
He assured his company would do everything necessary to ensure the project's early completion, declaring, “We are committed to delivering on speed and quality.”
Recall that the NDDC Managing Director, Dr Samuel Ogbuku, recently briefed President Bola Tinubu on the progress made on the Kaa-Ataba Bridge and other legacy projects of the Commission.
