Uju Udeme, the
president, Asaba Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture
(ASACCIMA), said the association was committed to the promotion of
industrial and commercial activities in Delta State.
Mr. Udeme said this
in Asaba on Wednesday when members of the association visited the state
commissioner for special duties in-charge of Direct Labour Agency
(DLA), Ngozi Okolie.
He said that one of
the objectives of the association was the promotion of the interest of
its members and harnessing and strengthening of the resource base of
private sector operators.
According to him,
key areas in promoting the private sector-driven economy include
telecommunications, tourism, agriculture, oil and gas, transportation
and finance.
“We are aware that
your agency is involved in the construction and maintenance of roads
across the state. And we also know that the impact of road in the
development of the economy of the state cannot be over emphasised,” he
added.
