Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, has praised President Bola Tinubu for approving the design and procurement of two major highway projects, describing the move as another sign of the President’s commitment to rebuilding the South-East through infrastructure.
The governor made the disclosure in a post on X on Thursday.
Soludo said the approvals followed a meeting he held with Tinubu on July 1, after which the Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, asked him to submit details of roads they had previously discussed.
According to the governor, he forwarded two road projects on July 3. They include the proposed dualisation of the 108-kilometre Otuocha–Anam–Abaji road linking Anambra and Kogi states, and the 150-kilometre Oba–Nnewi–Uga–Ihube (Okigwe Junction) road connecting Anambra and Imo to the Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway through Abia State.
Soludo disclosed that he received confirmation on July 15 from the Minister of Works that President Tinubu had approved both projects for design and procurement.
