Governor Chukwuma Soludo has been commended for flagging off the reconstruction of critical roads across the state.
Speaking to the ABS in Awka, the state chairman, Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria, RTEAN, Mr. Chukwuka Okonkwo, an Architect, said that the ongoing massive flag off is a clear demonstration that the governor did not mince words, when he told Ndi Anambra during campaign that he will leave an indelible mark in the state as a governor.
Mr. Okonkwo noted that the inaugurated roads in Okpoko, Awka North, Ayamelum, Anambra East and West, among others are highly strategic because of the roles those areas play in the life of the state.
He maintained that while Okpoko needs urban renewal and good planning because of the density of its population, Anambra East and West, Awka North and Ayamelum Local Government Areas need good roads to evacuate their agricultural produce.
While appealing to Ndi Anambra to support the governor by ensuring that the various contractors handling the road projects and their equipment are well protected and secured, the state RTEAN boss described the recent visit by Governor Soludo to the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Federal Roads Maintenance Agency at Abuja, as a step in the right direction.
Architect Okonkwo also called on traditional rulers, presidents general and stakeholders in communities across the state to help the governor in ensuring that all forms of criminal activities are nipped in the bud in their towns and communities.
