“The Master plan will outline and define essential infrastructure projects which fit into the overall agriculture, industry and housing policies and programmes of the state,’’ he said.
He also said that his administration would construct ring-roads to link all the 17 local government headquarters and improve on the Nsukka/OpiAgu-UgwogoNike/Enugu roads.
“We will also pay special attention to the Orba/Ogbodu Abba/Eha Ndiagu/Mbu/Neke/Ikem/Eha Amufu-Ebonyi border roads so as to ease transportation in and around the state.
“We will introduce a hitherto unknown maintenance culture in the state by establishing a Road Maintenance Agency to ensure that our roads are motor able all-year-round,’’ he said.(NAN)
