This event marked a historic moment for the people of Idaw River, who celebrated their first road intervention project in 52 years. The roads commissioned in this zone include Broderick Street, Silver Smith Street, Asata Mine Road, and Ogbete—Jamboree -Ajogwu Road, among others.
In the Idaw River area, significant roads such as Emeka Ebila, Idaw River Secondary School Road, Umuchu Street, Omachiani Street, Iloh Franco Street, St. Charles Street, Umu Ohachie Street, Ozoude Street, Meniru Street, and Mount Street Bypass have been completed, transforming the local landscape.
Other commissioned roads in the Uwani Zone include Bishop Anyogu Street, College Road, Edeozie Street, and Kenyatta Street to Timber Road. The Garki Zone saw the completion of St. Peter’s Road, Odudukoko Street, the Garki flyover, and four flyover ramps at the Garki and Amechi Awkunanaw flyovers.
Governor Mbah also announced a second phase of road construction, which will include 80 more roads. This ambitious plan aims to construct a minimum of 10 kilometers of road in each electoral ward, ensuring that rural areas are not left out of the state’s development agenda.
