Governor David Nweze Umahi of Ebonyi State Governor, yesterday inspected the ring road project with a view of mastering its current status before commencement.
Umahi during the inspection described the project as landmark because of its strategic importance, adding that upon completion, it will open the suburbs for greater economic development and linkages of Ebonyi.
The Governor assured that the project will be completed within the shortest possible time, further added that he will live no stone unturned on his onerous task of developing the state to become global destination of investors.
Since Governor Umahi embarked on the process of constructing the ring road project, reactions have continued to trail it, with many calling on the governor to hasten its completion, because of its all encompassing benefits.
Also, the development it will attract has continued to engage the attention of development pundits who said it will step down development to the grassroots thereby decongesting the already crowded urban areas.
Others are also commending Governor Umahi for his people centred approach to governance especially in the ring road.
The inspection tour took off from Ohaukwu to Ezza North, Ezza South, Izzi, Ikwo and climaxed at Izzi council area of the state but the Governor noted that the remaining council areas will be inspected in a later date.
He equally showed excitement that the project will be done on concrete just like other road projects in Ebonyi, noting that it is the best technology in road construction which guarantees over 50 years lifespan.
