The Minister of Works, David Umahi has ordered contractors handling the Enugu – Port Harcourt Expressway Section III and Enugu – Lokpanta in Enugu State, to redesign failed portions of the road with concrete pavement. Umahi gave the directive while inspecting the road project as part of activities marking the beginning of his South East road inspection tour scheduled to take place throughout the week starting from Tuesday 5th September – Saturday 9th September 2023. She explained that the minister reaffirmed that construction work on all federal roads must be done in line with specification to avoid a situation where contractors will be compelled to return and repeat an already completed job.
