Hon. Ikenga Ugochinyere, a member of the House of Representatives representing Ideato North and South Federal Constituency of Imo State, has received assurance from the Minister of Works, David Umahi, that the bad roads and gully erosion in his constituency will be repaired.
Ugochinyere had previously appealed to the Minister to address issues related to Umuchima Gully erosion, Orlu-Akokwa Road, and Nnewi-Uga-Akokwa-Arondizuogu Federal Roads, which span Anambra and Imo States. His plea followed the adoption of his motion in the House of Representatives, seeking repairs for these roads and the gully erosion site.
In a statement issued on Thursday, Ugochinyere mentioned that the Minister reassured him that he had seen and heard his appeals and would do his best to help the people of Ideato. He praised the Minister’s commitment and readiness to address national infrastructure challenges and expressed confidence in Umahi’s ability to tackle not only the road challenges in Ideato but also those across the entire nation.
Ugochinyere commended the Minister for his dedication to resolving the ongoing road infrastructure issues in Nigeria and expressed optimism that the resolutions passed by the House of Representatives would be implemented.
