South East roads require urgent Government attention - Osinbajo

Vice President Osinbajo, while answering questions from
journalists at a wedding he attended at the Cathedral
Church of the Good Shepherd, Anglican Communion,
Enugu, during the weekend, said that the worst problem
plaguing people of the South-Eastern area was bad
roads, adding that the situation required urgent Federal
Government attention.
Prof. Osinbajo stated that even though the government
has some financial constraints, there was urgent need to
improve on the roads in the region where commerce is
the source of income for the people. He said that he had
discussed the issue with Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of
Enugu State.
He said:
“One problem that the people of the South-East
have is roads. You know what our financial
constraints are, and there is a need for
improvement on roads where there is a lot of
commerce and movement of people. There is
need to raise the value of naira by discouraging
importation of some items so that the economy
will improve.”
In a homily at the church, Arch. Bishop of the Enugu
Ecclesiastical Province, Anglican Communion, His Grace,
Emmanuel Chukwuma, appealed to the Federal
Government to create employment for the teeming
unemployed youths in the country, living in poverty.
