According to him, "It was hitherto a death trap to users and a heartache to students plying it as it was filled with potholes." 

"Recall that Governor David Umahi had few months ago, during his campaign for second tenure promised to construct the road to the standard that will make it to last beyond 50 years."

"Truth is, his promise was never to make it a double lane but as the construction goes on, the entire people of the affected communities were thrown into surprise as they discovered that the road is not just made with 8 inches concrete pavement but also dualized thereby, making way for free movement of the road users."
