“We’ve been investing in the region for a long time. We’re very much encouraged by the plans, vision and the leadership that the Ministry and the new government is putting in place,” Aguilera, added.
Responding, the minister said the government had many projects and programmes ongoing in the Niger Delta to checkmate restiveness there.
