You need painkillers to go through Aba-Port Harcourt Road – Umahi
Minister of Works, David Umahi, has lamented the state of the federal road connecting Port Harcourt and Aba.
Umahi directed contractors working on federal roads in the South-East and South-South to accelerate work while ensuring compliance with contract specifications.
He further stated that the federal government managed to save more than N300 billion by fixing a problem discovered two weeks ago on the road near the Second Niger Bridge in Onitsha, South-East Nigeria.
Umahi said this through a statement signed by his spokesperson Uchenna Orji.
“I feel for them very highly. When you go through this road, you now need to take a number of painkillers. It’s not desirable,” he said.
