Minister for Works, Dave Umahi has assured Nigerians that all roads being constructed by the regime of President Bola Tinubu would last for 100 years.

Inspecting the ongoing construction of the Enugu - Onitsha expressway, Umahi stated that road construction in the country is no longer business as usual, as the era of the use of asphalt had gone.

According to him, most road constructions are now done with concrete for a long lasting.

He said that the Awka - Enugu express road funded by the tax paid by the MTN, would be completed on record time .

"I am impressed with the work being done by the construction company which is using concrete to do about 23 km of road. The first 20.km have been completed and we have concrete road that will last to the next 100 years", the Minister said.

He explained that the sustained inspection of road projects across the country is to ensure that Nigerians get value for their tax payers money.

He charged the people of the South East geopolitical zone to be appreciative of the massive road projects being executed by President Bola Tinubu administration.

The quality of what the President is doing would remain a legacy, so I ask the South East people to stand with the President and support him

Before now, this road was so terrible and people were on social media talking all sorts of things, but now that the road has been done, we want you to go to social media and thank the President and be grateful to God.

"If you appreciate what a man has done, he would do more and South East would be on the rise", Umahi stated.
