Prior to this initiative, we have been able to negotiate and pay compensation to the 130 affected property owners, thanks to the help of professional valuers. If any of the affected owners have not received their compensation, it may be due to bureaucratic issues as the money has been made available already. We also engaged Craneburg, a reputable international construction company, to ensure the quality and timely delivery of the project. This is just the first phase, as we plan to continue the road to the Onuimo boundary of Abia State as part of our larger plan to improve the road network and reduce traffic in Umuahia.
According to the governor :
"As we kick-start this milestone, we call on all to support our vision for a better Abia".
God bless you all."

This road project will significantly improve connectivity and transportation in the area, facilitating smoother traffic flow and reducing congestion.With its increased capacity, the road will offer enhanced access to various destinations in Umuahia and beyond, benefiting not only the local residents but also commuters and businesses in the region."
The improved connectivity will likely lead to economic growth, as it will facilitate the movement of goods and services, attracting investments and promoting trade.Furthermore, the construction of a dual carriageway will enhance safety on the road by providing separate lanes for opposite directions of traffic.
