Africa-Press<\/a> – Nigeria<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>In the beginning, roads were paths made by animals. They were later adopted by humans to serve their own needs.Modern roads and highways are described as traveled ways on which people, animals or wheeled vehicles move. The term road is, therefore, a rural, less traveled way, while the word street denotes an urban roadway. Highway refers to a major rural traveled way.<\/p>\n

In every society, roads are catalyst to economic growth. They provide important social benefits also. They, for instance, provide access to employment, social, health and educational services, thereby serving as an antidote to hunger, poverty, backwardness and under development. Indeed, the importance of good road networks in modern times can never be over stretched.<\/p>\n

On assumption of office, six years ago, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, undoubtedly realized this much and made design, construction, reconstruction and rehabilitation of urban and rural roads among his priorities.Today, over 700 kilometers of roads, spread across the state, have been completed with asphalt while many others are ongoing in the same haste and urgency across the state. It is on record that no fewer than 250 road projects are either completed or are ongoing in different parts of the state.<\/p>\n

Early in his administration, the New Market \u2013 9th mile portion of the Enugu \u2013 Onitsha Express Way had become a death trap. Accidents were regularly recorded on the highway, leading to injury and loss of lives. The tragic status of the highway was so bad that one needs to dust up his will before traveling pass the highway.<\/p>\n

At that time, the only option left for motorists was to ply the old Ngwo road or Milken Hill road, as it was popularly called. Again, this road had become notorious for its dangerously bendy nature, which winded through the foot of the thick -forested hill, bounded by very deep gully. Underneath the hill were relics of coal mines and its beautiful tunnels, which unfortunately were not protective.<\/p>\n

Indeed, the hill has always been a beautiful sight. It is still beautiful.Yet, over time, drivers are generally encouraged to drive slowly and cautiously given its dangerously meandering nature. Often, vehicles slid down the valley; especially when and if utmost care was not exercised by the driver..<\/p>\n

Coincidentally the road, at that time, was also caving in due to erosion, making it obviously unsafe for motorists and for all those who travel through it. It was therefore obvious that something must be urgently done to salvage the road. More so, when the same Milken Hill road was a major economic gateway for the people of Enugu State.
\nIt was against this background that Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, embarked on redesigning and constructing the popular Milken Hill road. His approach was double- barreled in nature. He not only redesigned and constructed the 5.50km New Market- Milken Hill \u2013 Ngwo \u2013 9th Mile Corner Road, he also rehabilitated the New Market \u2013 Iva Valley flyover portion of the Enugu \u2013 Onitsha Express road.<\/p>\n

He expanded the Milken Hill road, using strong concrete pavements as barricade to prevent vehicles from falling into the deep gully and installed solar -powered street lights to light up the road at night.<\/p>\n

The result was astonishing.Many who had been there, lost their breath in utter amazement. They would never have imagined that such engineering wonder could happen in Africa, considering the difficult nature of the road. Even among engineering experts, it is hard to believe that this feat is possible. But with Governor Ugwuanyi, impossible is very possible.<\/p>\n

Today, Milken Hill road has become a tremendously beautiful sight- Green, lush and natural, It has become an endearing road path to travel, a path where motorists, cyclists and even mountain hikers are wrapped in the bosom of mother nature.<\/p>\n

Another point to acknowledge with joy about the administration road program is its spread across urban and rural centers. The rural people of the state certainly are not abandoned and ignored. Some of the rural projects are Amaechi- Uwani road, Ebony Paint road, Ugwogo \u2013 Nike \u2013 Ikem road, Umualor \u2013 Eha \u2013 Amufu road, Eha \u2013 Amufu \u2013 Nkalagu road, Amaechi- Idodo \u2013 Amuzam \u2013 Amagunze road, Ugbawka \u2013 Nara \u2013 Nkerefi Road, Ogonogoeji \u2013 Ndiagu \u2013 Akpugo road, Agbani \u2013 Afor \u2013 Amauri road, ongoing Onuoha \u2013 Obi \u2013 Offia and Bunker Roads among others.<\/p>\n

But that is not all there is about the several beautiful roads of Enugu State. Driving in Enugu State has become an exercise of ease, safety and comfort. No more is the rough bumpy drives that destabilizes the drivers!<\/p>\n

Despite the challenging economic situation in the country as a result of the global pandemic and a sharp drop in Federal allocation, the number of these roads is amazing too. There are several of them. A most recent one is the Etudo\/ Awkunanaw Street, which was hitherto in a very deplorable state. The delivery of this brand new road has generated so much joy among the residents of the state.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the Governor\u2019s visit to the street, the State Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Engr. Greg Nnaji, said that \u201cThe road was captured in the 2021 budget deliverables as a Special Intervention Project for urgent attention because of its socio \u2013 economic importance to residents of the area\u201d.<\/p>\n

Other roads constructed and rehabilitated within the metropolis include Airport \u2013 Roundabout \u2013 Orie \u2013 St. Patrick\u2019s \u2013 Eke Obinagu road, Abakpa Nike and Nike Road, Enugu \u2013 Abakaliki ( Ekeobinagu junction) \u2013 Onunweneabo \u2013 Akpuga Nike road, Achi \u2013 Akpo \u2013 Daughters of Divine Love (DDL) road.<\/p>\n

Also rehabilitated and reconstructed are Njamanze entrance, Bonny lane, Asata chemist lane all in Ogui road, Mount Street GRA, NEW Market roundabout, Civil Defense, Works road, Agu \u2013 Abor \u2013 Ngenevu and Broderick roads, Nkpokiti Estate Road, Ibuzor Street, Agbani\/ Ohofia Street, Afam Okereke Street, Ugwuoba, Onitsha, Ukehe streets, mostly in Independence Layout.<\/p>\n

Others are Eleanor Estate road, John Nwodo close, Owerre Izukala, Timbershed\/ Kenyatta \u2013 Ugwuaji \u2013 Loma- Linda \u2013 Umunano Street, Maryland \u2013 Lomalinda \u2013 Onukwe Street and so many other roads scattered across Enugu too numerous to mention; including the commencement of the construction of the all important flyover at Nike Lake T- junction.<\/p>\n

In the rural areas, all the three Senatorial Zones are carried along. Some of the recently commissioned roads include the 22.443km Nike \u2013 Mpu \u2013 Ogbodu Abba \u2013 Obollo \u2013 Etiti road which was awarded under the Phase one roads of the Rural Access and Mobility Project (#RAMP \u2013 2) in the state.<\/p>\n

Commissioning the road which connects Isi \u2013 Uzo and Udenu Local Government Areas of Enugu State, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi explained that the project was in line with his administration\u2019s rural development agenda, stressing that it will ease the movement of goods, services and persons, while advancing his administration\u2019s rural connectivity and integrated development strategy.The Governor urged the people to own and protect the road.<\/p>\n

In the same vein, countless road projects have been designed and completed or rehabilitated in different Senatorial districts of the state in line with the administration\u2019s massive rural development agenda.<\/p>\n

At this juncture, it is indeed important to mention a few of the road projects; beginning with Enugu West Senatorial Zone. They are Uhuogiri \u2013 Nnewe \u2013 Oduma road, Dan Ukey road, Amachalla \u2013 Onovo- Nzerem road, Ogbaku \u2013 Ogugu \u2013 Owelli \u2013 Ihe road, Ngene \u2013 Onyibo Agunese Mmaku road, Ituku road, 9th Mile -Anjali \u2013 Imezi Owa road, Mission Junction- Owollotti \u2013 Ugwuike Ogoma road, Amaeke Ngwo \u2013 Nsude road, 9th Mile bypass, Enugu Eke \u2013 Ogui Uno \u2013 Oma Eke Road, Akpakume \u2013 Nze \u2013 Aku road, failed portion of the 9th Mile \u2013 Udi \u2013 Oji River- Ugwuoba \u2013 Anambra State road and several others.<\/p>\n

The academic community of Nsukka town, which is in Enugu North Senatorial Zone, will forever be grateful to the Governor for the transformation of the area. The dualization of Opi \u2013 Nsukka road positively changed the entire landscape of the academic community.<\/p>\n

Just recently, Governor Ugwuanyi delivered a standard asphalt road and solar powered street lights to Ohodo community in Igbo -Etiti Local Government Area.<\/p>\n

It was also happy time for the people of Igugu in Udenu Local Government Area as the people appreciated the Governor for asphalting the 6.110km road in their community.<\/p>\n

Other constructed or rehabilitated roads in the zone include the Post office- Roundabout- Odenigbo \u2013 Ogurugu \u2013 Ikenga Hotel road, Umuezeobi \u2013 Nru junction \u2013 University Gate road, Ogurute \u2013 Mkpamute \u2013 Igogoro \u2013 Ikpamodo \u2013 Okpo \u2013 Amaja road, Obum Orba junction \u2013 Imilike Ani \u2013 Ezimo \u2013 Uno ring road, Ugbene \u2013 Ajima \u2013 Ezeani \u2013 Army barrack road, Ozidem \u2013 Nrobo \u2013 Abbi \u2013 Nimbo road, Ogurute \u2013 Enugu \u2013 Ezike road and many others.<\/p>\n

The Governor did not stop at State roads but also embarked on rehabilitation of some failed portions of Federal roads within the state. Some of the Federal roads rehabilitated include Opi \u2013 Obollo \u2013 Affor road , 9th Mile (stretch from Ekochin junction to Mechanic village), Egede junction, Amoka Okpatu, Army Checkpoint, Opi junction by Holy Child Catholic Church, Ochima , towards Ogbede junction etc.<\/p>\n

From the above analysis, it is clear that the six years of Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi on the saddle as Governor of Enugu State is indeed a blessing. No doubt, the people of Enugu State will forever be grateful to their Governor for his \u201cCivil Engineering Wonders\u201d at Milken Hill and for leaving the state in the hand of God; End.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
