Image: Punch Nigeria · original report

The Edo State Government has appealed to residents to be patient over deteriorating roads, saying major repair work is planned for the dry season. The statement, reported by Punch Nigeria, does not specify which roads will be prioritised, when work will begin or the funds allocated to the programme.

The Edo State Government has urged residents to be patient over the condition of roads in the state. According to Punch Nigeria, the government said major repairs would be carried out during the dry season. The statement was made in response to concerns about bad roads.

The available report does not identify the affected roads or provide a timetable for the start and completion of the repairs. It also gives no details of the expected cost, contractors or specific measures planned before the dry season. The government’s appeal therefore centres on residents waiting for the larger repair programme.
