April 28, (THEWILL)- Governor Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang of Plateau State has rehabilitated 29 urban roads equal to 47.37ks within the Jos-Bukuru metropolitan area in the past 10 months.
Speaking during a ministerial press briefing, the Commissioner for Works, Adams Lekshak, explained that most of the road works have already been completed while on-going ones are near completion.
According to the Commissioner, the roads network in the Jos-Bukuru metropolis was in dire need of rehabilitation and this caught the attention of the governor who apparently assumed power with a readiness and will to work.
Apart from the rehabilitation works, he said that routine general patching of potholes on roads within the same metropolis is being carried out, and, so far, the patch work has been completed with 22 roads involved.
He also said drainages and gutters within the same municipal area are being evacuated and cleared to avoid the roads getting flooded as the rains get underway.
