A geometric power generating plant in Aba, Abia State, is set to be commissioned on February 24, 2024.
The purpose of this plant is to improve power generation and support businesses in Aba.
This information was shared by the Commissioner for Information and Culture, Prince Okey Kanu, during a recent announcement at the Government House in Umuahia.
He also mentioned that President Bola Tinubu is expected to officiate the inauguration of this important power project.
Prince Kanu highlighted the state government’s efforts to ensure the successful operation of the Geometric Power Plant.
The commissioning of this plant will fulfill a long-awaited dream for both the Geometrics company and the residents of Abia State.
The state government has made significant efforts to ensure the success of this project because it will bring great benefits to the people once it becomes operational.
“The power project has underscored the commitment of the state government to boost the economic fortunes of the state through the encouragement of private sector investment in infrastructure.
“Of course, you know what that project means to our people; it would help Aba residents, the business community, and environs a great deal because power has been a great challenge to Aba and some parts of the state,” Vanguard quoted Kanu saying.
He added, saying, “Once that plant is commissioned, quite a lot of things will change in Aba’s business environment. It’s worthy of note that the birth of the Geometric Power Generation Company is somewhat fortuitous. His Excellency, Dr. Alex Otti, the former Managing Director and CEO of defunct Diamond Bank PLC, was involved with the Geometric Power Project right from its conception.
“Fortuitously, he is now the Governor of Abia State and is set to oversee the commissioning of the power plant in Aba. Let me stop at this point so that the governor will better tell the story himself for greater impact.”
