There will be massive roads construction across Imo State as the State Government says soon work will commence on the roads.
The construction of the roads is expected after a turbulent rainy season in the State this year.
Roads in the State had been in sorry condition lately due to the shoddy manner it was constructed in the past.
State Governor, Hon.Emeka Ihedioha said in his Independence Day s said works are commencing for the reconstruction of 14 critical roads, both within the Owerri township and across the State.
Governor Ihedioha had flagged off the Rural Access and Mobility Project, geared towards the reconstruction of some roads in the 27 local governments across the State.
Some roads earmarked for reconstruction within the State include : Nkume/Umuowa/Owerri Ebiri/Umunna Orlu, Imo State University Teaching Hospital, Umuna, Mgbidi/Oguta road, Douglas/Emmanuel College/Naze, Naze Poly/Ihiagwa/Obinze road, Control Post/World Bank; Ahiara junction/Okpala, IMSU/Bishop’s court, Okigwe town/St.Mary’s Catholic church, MCC/Toronto junction, Aba branch/Ahiara junction, Concord/Zuma/Port Harcourt road.
