Ebonyi State Governor, David Nweze Umahi has commenced the construction of Old Abakaliki-Enugu Road.
Speaking with our correspondent during the inspection, Special Assistant to the Governor on New Media, Mr. Francis Nwaze said the road was in a very bad shape after the Asphalt coating done by previous administration before Umahi came into office.
He noted that students, lecturers and the general road users who ply the road were worried as it seems that the road was forgotten not until the day that the transformation governor visited the permanent site campus of the University and made promise to construct the road.
He assured that the road will soon be completed.
He said : “Observers have maintained that the Ebonyi State Governor, Engr. David Nweze Umahi, FNSE, FNATE is the only governor who has the habit of fulfilling all his promises without leaving any stone unturned neither is he sentimental. It has been gathered that all promises he made during his first term were fulfilled even before he rounded off his first two years as the governor.”
” I am just leaving the site of the road that primarily connects Abakaliki with Ishieke Campus/Permanent site of Ebonyi State University which was hitherto the old Abakaliki-Enugu Expressway. The road was in a very bad shape after the Asphalt coating before this administration which ended up making the road to retain the worse in the entire state.”
“Students, lecturers and the general road users who ply the road were mostly worried as it seems that the road was forgotten not until the day that the transformation governor visited the permanent site campus of the University and made promise to construct the road. It actually caused jubilation and celebration among the users on hearing the governor intention on the road.”
“To the glory of God and the will of a promise keeping governor, the road as at today is heavily under construction with high speed and quality touch of the governor.”
“Whenever and wherever, a state under quick transformation is mentioned in Nigeria, Ebonyi State is usually on top of the lips of everyone. We give it all to Governor Umahi for always identifying and giving quick attention to the locations that require his immidiate attention.”
