The minister said the government was committed to improving economic diversification of the country through development of road projects to improve economic corridors for business growth.

Umahi said the Sokoto-Badagry Highway is 1,000 kilometres, adding that the project had been designed and approved by the Tinubu’s administration as part of the Renewed Hope agenda.

“We have another road project that will connect Enugu to Cameroon, Otukpo to Benue and Nasarawa,’’ he said.
