 Following the poor condition of the federal government road, which created hardship for road users in Edo and Delta States, the governor of Delta State, Right Honorable Sharif of Warawari, has directed the Ministry of Works in Delta State to put palliative works on the federal government road across the 25 local government areas of the state. The four road users along Benin, Sapele, Wari, Agboaiku and Asaba Benin Road. A commissioner for off-road road and river road works, Charles Anyagu, made the statement while speaking with us of our correspondent, Akoame Jero Friday, at the government house in Asaba, the state capital. The very disturbing nature of federal rules across the state have also caught the attention of its excellency. And to that extent, he has directed the Ministry of Works, i.e. highway and rural, to proceed, to seek ways of mitigating the effect of these challenges posed by these federal highways that are in deplorable state. And to start with, one across the Asaba Benin expressway has asked that something be done along some of those ditches, and also, very, very importantly, the Agboaiku Road, which is in a very disturbing state, even if it is a federal road, and at the moment we'll have the challenges of federal government having to grant you permission before you could proceed. But the governor is disturbed that our people are going through a whole lot of harrowing experience to commute along this corridor, and so he has asked us to proceed, to take steps to do something that will make those rules and put them in much more motorable condition.
