While Wike commissioned the Ayua Num Road and the 14km electrification project in Tse Poor-Mbanima substation and distribution acknowledged the importance of roads for its economic gains, saying, as an agricultural state, \u201cIf you don\u2019t have roads to take your farm produce to the city, it makes no sense.<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cSo, for this road and electrification, you have made life simple and easier for the people and that is what good governance is all about,\u201d stressing that, \u201cWe want to say we are proud of you that you have made promises and today is a promise fulfilled,\u201d Wike said.<\/p>\n

Oyo State Governor, Engr. Makinde commended Governor Ortom, saying that \u201cAnywhere road goes, development follows.\u201d<\/p>\n

Governor Ugwuanyi in his short speech before commissioning the JKN Waku Road described Governor Ortom \u201cas a gift to Benue\u201d stating that he has stood for his people.<\/p>\n

In the words of the Enugu State Governor, Ugwuanyi after commissioning the road and electricity projects said, \u201cElectricity is a strong enabler that drives economic development. Our expectation is that the people that live along this 14-kilometre that is covered by this project will be given impetus for greater economic growth.<\/p>\n

Commissioner for Works, Engr Jude Uungwa had earlier presented the projects for commissioning stating that a good number of the road projects initiated by the Governor Ortom-led administration have been fully completed and some were at various stages of completion.<\/p>\n
