Edo state governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has approved the total rehabilitation of over forty five failed portions on the Auchi-Igarra-Ibillo Federal road.
The actipn, as believed, would revive economic activities in towns and villages in Akoko Edo Local Government Area of the State.
The latest approval is coming, just as the state government has completed the construction of the Ikiran-Oke Ikakhumoh road, also in Akoko Edo Local Government.
The Auchi-Igara-Ibillo road is one of the many deplorable federal roads in Edo State being rehabilitated by Governor Monday Okpebholo-led administration.
The road connecting many communities in Akoko Edo Local Government to the rest of the state also serves as a link between Kogi and Ondo states. It serves as a major route for vehicles plying Lagos from Abuja.
The contractor handling the project, Bajwa Hammed, after a preliminary tour of the road, assured Akoko Edo people that all failed sections would be completely rehabilitated to meet maximum standard.
“There are a lot of points that have failed on this road, which need to be done quickly for the safe passage of the people and vehicles. I know the standard the governor wants, and we will deliver on it.”
