Delta Governor Orders Julius Berger to Repair East-West Road

Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta State has directed Julius Berger Nigeria Plc to commence immediate repairs on the collapsed section of the East-West Road located at Agbarho in the Ughelli North Local Government Area. This directive was announced during the 66th Independence Anniversary celebration at the Cenotaph in Asaba.

The governor attributed the road's collapse to a natural disaster that occurred in the area a few days prior. He stated, “A few days ago, we also witnessed a natural disaster on the East-West Road.

I have directed Julius Berger to immediately fix the collapsed portion of the road.” As of the report's filing, Julius Berger had already mobilized to the site and begun reconstruction efforts on the affected section of the highway. This intervention aims to restore normal traffic flow and alleviate the challenges faced by motorists and commuters along the busy East-West Road corridor.
