A welcome development

This Ihedioha seems to be sleeping in my opinion.

I thought by now Imo state would've become a construction site.

Please Mr. Governor, whatever you do please don't forget that the communities in Ohaji are cut off from the city of Owerri due to bad roads. Please let's feel the "Rebuild Imo" agenda.

Thank you.

I pray be sees it through. It should be quality roads, not just roads.

Nice one.. Projects and developments first before questioning..

Very very good development. This is what we expected and I pray it continues. Owerri-Amaraku-Anara--Onuimo-Umunna-Okigwe is the route to my village and I can imagine the relief this will bring to motorists.Owerri is also in need of massive infrastructure upgrades.

Road constructions during heavy rains are not advisable.
Such an adventure would result to wastage and overshooting of initial budgets for such projects.
That notwithstanding, the governor has quickly responded to critics whom want the governor to perform magic and turn the State into a Dubai in just 6 months amidst heavy rain showers.
The road rehabilitation will go on at a much slower pace, making the roads motorable for commuters up until the rain stops for massive reconstruction.
