Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah on Wednesday flagged off the construction of 78.85km of roads in Nkanu East and Nkanu West local government areas of the state.
The governor said he looked forward to commissioning the roads in a few months.
“In the last few days, we have flagged off about 90km of roads and bridges across these local government areas.
“What we are about to witness in our communities is an agricultural renaissance. As you already know, we are setting up farm estates in different wards on a minimum of 200 hectares of land each.

“The farm estate would ensure that we take our agriculture potential to an industrial scale.
“So, our growth in agriculture will not just be for food. Agriculture for us will be a serious business and a major force for economic growth,” he said.
