Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki has awarded contracts for the reconstruction and rehabilitation of 140 roads in different parts of the state.

Obaseki named Agho Streets (First and Second) and Erumwunse Street in Ekehuan axis of Benin City, among the road contracts recently awarded, noting that work would commence before the end of January as contracts for their repairs have been awarded.

He disclosed this during a visit to Ward 3, in Oredo Local Government Area, where he campaigned for candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC) contesting for seats in the Senate, House of Representatives and State House of Assembly.


He said, “We have awarded the reconstruction of roads in this area. Contractors will soon start work on Erumwunse Street. Also, first and second Agho streets have been awarded and the contractor is set to start work.”

He recalled that the state government classified reconstruction work on roads across the state into 9-axis, with the scope of work to be carried out to include, site clearance/earthworks, scarification of failed sections, filling with hardcore (designated sections), and filling of sub-base with lateritic materials.

According to him, other aspects include laying of stone base as base course, provision of rigid concrete pavement and asphaltic wearing course.”

The reconstruction work in Ekehuan/Siluko/Ugbowo I axis covers a 2.085km-road network, which includes Eheneden Street, Off Ekehuan Road; Agho Street Off Ekehuan Road, 2nd Agho Street, off Ekehuan Road, Erumwunse Street off Ekehuan Road, Aibalegbe Street, Isiohor Benin-Lagos Expressway and Jemide Drive, off Goodwill, off Ekehuan Road.”

In Edo Central, reconstruction of road is being carried out on 8.8452km of roads, which include Esan Central Secretariat-Ivue Road; Ubiaja Angle 90 – Ahia Roundabout; Uwalor Road, Uromi, Palace Road Ewohimi, among others.

A very hard working, visionary and organised governor.

Different from the usual political Governors.

A consummate technocrat and administrator he is...

When would we stop construction & reconstruction of roads in Nigeria?

At this stage, we should just be having regular road network maintenance..............

akwa ibom and delta are more beautiful than Edo state, I heard delta and Bayelsa can't still pay salaries but Edo state have been paying 24,000# since years back.

Good governance is better than resources, take Rwanda as example

Of what use is good governance, if they don't know how to adequately manage resources + wealth creation?...

that's what I'm saying

Akwa ibom, delta, Bayelsa,, river state all make thrice more money than Edo state but there leaders don't know how to manage it and use it for good governance.

Edo state on the other hand is diversifying, looking for ways to make more money and generate higher revenue.

to be honest lucky igbnedion did poorly, any body could have beaten him in development.

Oshiomole only renovate some roads,schools and co other than that, he failed woefully.

The biggest oshiomole achievement was bringing obaseki in.

I rate Edo state high more than any other state in development now.
