Give Us Federal Roads To Control, Nigeria Governors Tell FG by tsirin(f): 7:43pm On Sep 28, 2017 |
The governors of the 36 states have asked the federal government to give them control over some of the federal highways in their states. This was part of their demands at the meeting of the National Economic Council (NEC) chaired by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo at the presidential villa in Abuja on Thursday. In short, state reporters after the six-hour meeting, Dave Umahi, governor of Ebonyi state, said the council was concerned about the poor state of some federal roads. The Governor of Ebonyi said it became clear that the federal government did not have the funds to repair the roads. http://www.reformerblog.com/2017/09/28/give-us-federal-roads-to-manage-nigeria-governors-ask-federal-government/ |

Actually state government roads are better maintained than the Federal government roads. So it might indeed be a better arrangement for states to repair and manage federal roads within their state |
