Less than two weeks of swearing in as the substantive governor of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodinma Tuesday announced the restoration of public water supply to some parts of Owerri metropolis.
Recall that several parts of the state capital had been without water supplies.
The Imo State Water and Sewage Corporation (ISWSC) said in no distant time, supplies will go round in line with the current administration’s mantra of reconstruction, rehabilitation and recovery.
In a statement signed by the Chief Press Secretary/Media Adviser, Mr Oguwike Nwachuku and made available to Business Hilights, it revealed that “Specifically, pipe borne water now runs in parts of Aladinma and Ikenegbu in Owerri as well as in Areas M, N, and C of World Bank, New Owerri.”
“Imo people should be rest assured that Government is working round the clock to ensure that public water supply is restored in all parts of Owerri metropolis in the shortest possible time.
“Governor Hope Uzodinma on resumption of office was worried that there was scarcity of water in Owerri metropolis and has promised to ensure that the situation is rectified as quickly as possible.
The statement averred further that “To the Governor, provision of safe potable water is a major mantra of his administration and he regrets inconveniences during the period of interruption of water supply.”
