There was a furniture manufacturing company in Effurun called, Grato Limited It employed over 100 Delta boys and girls. It produced world-class furniture for the local furniture industry. It was even exporting finished and semi finished wood products.<br \/>\n2. There was a rubber processing company called Abraka Rubber Limited. It was processing rubber for export to Europe and America. Over 50 Urhobo boys worked there before Babangida destroyed it<br \/>\n3. There was Fiogret Limited with very large fish processing and storage depots across Nigeria &#8211; Warri, Port Harcourt, Benin with Headquarters in Ikorodu, Lagos.

As I write, Ogboru is building a modular refinery called Adagwe\/Petrotop Refinery in Eruemukohwarien Ughelli. Simultaneously, he is developing a port complex on the Warri River by the Udu Bridge at Ovwian near Warri.<\/p>\n<p>If you look at Ogboru&#8217;s Manifesto, you will find the plan to revive the following dead Delta State government industries within the first one and a half years of coming to power:<br \/>\n1.Ughelli Glass Company<br \/>\n2. Asaba Textile Mill.<br \/>\n3 Delta Steel Structures Limited, Enerhe<br \/>\n4. Delta Boatyard, Warri<br \/>\n5. Nigerian Shrimp Company Oghareki.<br \/>\n6. Nigerian Salt Company Oghara.<br \/>\nAll these are state government companies established during the Ogbemudia era that have been abandoned by the PDP governments of the past 19 years.<\/p>\n<p>There is a plan by the Ogboru Government to establish and put into use the Okwagbe Port which will open up that axis of Urhobo land.<\/p>\n<p>It takes an industrialist like Ogboru to industrialise a state.
