A statement by the state commissioner for Information and Orientation, Mr. Daniel Iworiso-Markson says, in approving the amount, Governor Dickson explained that, the repair and modification of the Angiama Sub-station, is to ensure that, Southern Ijaw Local Government Area is not left out in the on-going project of the Government to connect electricity to all nooks and crannies of the state.
