Obaseki, Umahi assure motorists, others on fixing Ekpoma-Abuja highway
Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, and the Minister of Works and Housing, Dave Umahi, have expressed determination to end the groaning of motorists and commuters on the deplorable Ekpoma-Abuja federal highway.
Obaseki formally informed Umahi of the deplorable state of the strategic road, during yesterday’s meeting at the Government House, Benin, in the course of the minister’s inspection of ongoing federal road projects in Edo state.
The management of BUA Group, a cement producing company, with plant at Okpella in Etsako East Local Government Area of Edo state, which is leveraging on the gains of the conducive business environment made possible by Obaseki’s administration’s ease of doing business policies, mobilised its workforce to the failed portion of the Ekpoma-Abuja highway, in order to make the road motorable.
Umahi, while addressing reporters in Benin, after the closed-door meeting with Obaseki, hailed Edo governor for the high quality of some projects he saw that Obaseki’s administration was executing, while declaring that he was not cutting corners, so as to ensure that the best and most desirable was what was available for Edo residents.
