Uzamere stated this when he led some newsmen on inspection tour  of some road projects within the state metropolis and some local government areas of the state.

Some of the projects spread across four local government areas of the state viz Oredo, Ikpoba Okha, Ovia North East and Egor. It also includes Adesuwa Road in New Benin, Osamudiamen Road, Osazuwa Road, Okundia and Omo-Ojide Streets in GRA, Benin, Omomo Street by Stadium Road in Benin.

Other sites visited are Ekehuan Road, 19th Street and environs, Uwelu Road, Mechanic Road and Temboga.

Fielding questions from newsmen, Uzamere said, “When it comes to road construction a lot of work needs to happen during the dry season. So, this dry season we have done a lot of work to push our contractors to work even ahead of their programme of work and so far we are satisfied but we still have a few months left that we can still have this kind of touch.

“If you go around you will see that we have completed a few roads like Forestry Road, Eweka, Second Ugbor. There are other strategic roads that we have completed. Another thing that’s a big focus for us is that we should realise that one of the biggest issues we have in Edo State is the issue of erosion control. “We have also tried our best within the last few months as well to see how we can work with flood management agency to see how we can work on the flood erosion control issue in the state.”

He assured that the dualization of the ongoing Ekenwan will be completed in October adding that 19th streets will be passable during the rainy season.

“I think it is a very big milestone and we want to reassure that this area will be very passable during the rainy season and after the rainy season when we have a lot of compartment we come back and put some stone base and asphalt to be completed.

“Ekehuan Road will be completed to Ekehuan Barracks in October. We’re going to take it to Gelegele Port but the first phase now is going to be completed at the Ekehuan Barracks. We will do some palliative work to the Gelegele Port because we have another project which is the Ajoki – Ikpako Road Project that’s close to Gelegele,” he added.
