The Governor said he was honoured and happy that his party, the APC is bringing good governance and the dividends of democracy to the people of Edo State and Nigeria in general.
He noted that the President has matched his words with actions in fixing the road which before now was impassable and productive hours lost to the deplorable condition.
“I am very honoured and happy seeing this road now with the work going on. This is how to know a man who is working for his country. The President promised that he will do this road as the road had been abandoned for years.
“The President has matched his words with actions and today Esan people and Edo people in general are happy with this development. The road is now passable.
“We thank the President for what he is doing for Edo people which includes fixing this road which was not passable for a long time. I will continue to monitor this road and what is going on here.
“The President had asked me about the road when I met him. I told him that the project was ongoing. I am sure the President will see and hear about what is going on here. I thank him well for this. As for the job here, we are all happy and the people are really happy about the development.”
