Abia State governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu, has called on the federal government to fix federal roads across the state.
The governor in a series of tweets via his official twitter handle, noted that almost all roads linking Abia to other states are in a deplorable condition.
“I call for the urgent intervention of @NigeriaGov in revamping these roads which include: Aba-PH segment of Enugu-PH Highway, Aba-Ikot Ekpene & Umuahia-Ikot Ekpene Roads linking Abia to Akwa Ibom and Cross River States, and Umuahia-Ohafia-Arochukwu Rd among others,” he said.
Governor Ikpeazu, whose administration built alternative roads to other states, feared that Abia might be landlocked if nothing is done to salvage the situation urgently.
