“We are going to look at the second bridge and see how far the remedial work will be done on it. We are going to scale up the reconstruction of the two bridges alongside the road construction. I want to assure you that I have directed the contractor to do everything possible to provide an alternative road.

“We are going to work on the second bridge to ascertain the integrity of the bridge and see if we can use it while we demolish the collapsed one and start the reconstruction. I believe the contractor is hearing us, and the process will start immediately. I want to have a memo which I will send to Mr President,” stated Mr Umahi.JAMB Result

“We have gotten your letter on that, and I will be sending my men to come and evaluate it. I can assure you that within the next seven days, you must hear from us; we are doing the drains and will give you our standard and bills of quantities,” Mr Umahi told the Enugu governor.

He said it was “difficult for me to assure any governor that wants a refund. I cannot say because we came into office and inherited an economy that has more than 90 per cent of its income being used to service debts.”
