According to the state commissioner for Works and Transportation, Engr. Stanley Mbam, the asphalting would further smoothen the roads and ensure better connections for transportation in the state capital.

“The ongoing asphalt work in Ebonyi State, specifically at Emerfor Street along Ukwu Akpu, Nwele, Nnorom, and other internal roads, is being undertaken under the directive of the Executive Governor, Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru, and the Ministry of Works and Transport.

“The previous concrete coating on internal roads within the capital city has already been completed, and the current asphalt work aims to further smoothen the roads, ensuring better connectivity and transportation for the people of Ebonyi State,” Mbam said.
