Senator Ned Nwoko Lights Up Abbi with 50 Solar-Powered Streetlights in Landmark Development
ABBI/Nigeria: In a groundbreaking move that underscores his commitment to sustainable development, Senator Prince Ned Nwoko has commissioned 50 solar-powered streetlights in Abbi, Ndokwa West Local Government Area, Delta State. The event, which drew attention from across the region, marks a pivotal moment in the town’s growth, providing not only a boost to security but also a renewed sense of pride and progress.
The commissioning, attended by Senator Barinada Mpigi of Rivers South-East Senatorial District, is part of Nwoko’s broader constituency intervention initiatives aimed at bringing meaningful change to rural communities. The solar streetlights, now fully operational, illuminate key roads and public spaces in Abbi, improving safety and spurring local economic activities after dark.
“This is not just about installing lights,” Senator Nwoko said during the ceremony. “We are igniting possibilities—helping small businesses thrive, making streets safer for families, and ensuring that our communities feel the true benefits of democracy.”
The solar-powered project is part of Nwoko’s vision for environmentally friendly and cost-effective infrastructure solutions, addressing key challenges in Delta North. He emphasized that the initiative is just one of many steps in his ongoing effort to ensure the equitable distribution of federal resources to rural areas.
Highlighting the growing collaboration between himself and Senator Mpigi, Nwoko announced plans for a second phase of the project, which will see an additional 50 solar lights installed in Abbi. This partnership, he noted, transcends political lines and focuses solely on the collective good of the people.
The commissioning ceremony was met with strong praise from residents, traditional leaders, and dignitaries, who lauded Nwoko’s dedication to impactful, people-centered governance. With this project, Senator Nwoko continues to leave an indelible mark on the region, lighting the way for future progress across Delta North.
