By Sampson Uhuegbu, Owerri Imo Commissioner for Works, Ralph Nwosu, has assured people of Umuguma Community, in Owerri West Council Area of the State government's plan to repair their roads as soon as the dry season sets in. Nwosu disclosed this in his office while addressing the representatives of Umuguma community led by their Traditional ruler, Eze Dr. George Ugorji, President General of the community; Mr Benjamin Nlem amongst other members of the community. He sympathized with the people of Umuguma and assured them that admission of Senator Hope Uzodimma is determined in giving a facelift to their road as soon as rainy season goes. "I'm optimistic that in the coming weeks, the situation there will become a thing of the past." The Works Commissioner noted that already construction of drainages are ongoing to control flood waters from World Bank to Umuguma and from Umuguma to New Owerri for onward discharge to Otamiri River, calling on residents of these areas not to continue to dispose refuse on drainage gateways to avoid silting up the manholes. "I want to charge you and other road users to excercise patience as machineries and other earth- moving equipments will set in on the road in the coming days as His Excellency Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma is committed in changing the narrative on the state of Umuguma road and other critical infrastructures across the state" he added. Earlier, the President General, Mr Benjamin Nlem, lauded the administration of His Excellency Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma on the tremendous success achieved especially on key roads within the municipality which according to him, had been abandoned since the creation of Imo State, roads like Mbonu Ojike, Lake Nwaebere, Federal Secretariat road amongst other roads, noting that those landmark achievements cannot be forgotten in a hurry. He appealed to the Commissioner to come and salvage the sufferings of Umuguma residents as the road has become death trap to road users while calling on the state Government to prioritize the road for immediate construction once the dry season comes by.
