6 years is for substandard job.
A good road should last minimum 15 years.

Very poor construction, why would a sane man say a thing said by umahi?

25years is the standard for road life span,
75 years for buildings

In this our humid terrain? I think the climate and terrain affect the asphalt quicker than in cold countries.

How come India, Brazil and Singapore all have functioning roads? undecided
Re: Roads Constructed Under Tinubu Will Last Minimum 6 Years – Umahi by Chikeluba25(m): 11:33pm On Aug 22, 2023
What?

I can't believe a minister of work is boasting that his road will last for 6yrs and people are celebrating it....

In Anambra, the Awka/Onitsha old road built by Chris Ngige in 2003 has lasted for 20yrs still solid.

Nigeria my country. The statement is very disappointing.

The guarantee on Julius Berger roads used to be 20years except they have changed it while 6 years for Umahi's roads?

Even that, is substandard. Quality asphalt isn't supposed to require any repairs or maintenance for a minimum of 10years.

If the constructing company is J. Berger or RCC, their minimum standard is between 15 to 20years.

I won't be surprised if Umahi decides to construct Federal roads with his indigenous Ebonyi state construction companies. That can be the only reason he's already preparing our minds for low budget road deliveries.
