In a statement, the Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Engr. (Sir) Greg Nnaji had also disclosed that the state government had concluded arrangements to maintain the roads, explaining that because of “noticeable effects of climate change across the globe and unpredictable weather, there will be a wait for the rains to recede before the commencement of this operation within a dry weather window.”
