The Federal Ministry of Works has reiterated its commitment to urgent intervention on the severely deteriorated Benin–Sapele Road, particularly the section leading towards Obayantor in Edo State.

According to the statement released by the Works Ministry stated that this pledge follows a formal appeal by the Benin-Owena River Basin Development Authority (BORBDA), which highlighted the road’s deteriorating condition and its serious socio-economic impact.
During a strategic meeting held at the Ministry’s headquarters in Abuja, the Minister of State for Works, Bello M. Goronyo, who represented the Minister of Works, Engr. David Umahi, expressed concern over the insecurity, economic paralysis stemming from the road’s poor condition.

In his remarks, Goronyo stated: “I have listened with a heavy heart to your presentations. The kidnappings along that corridor, the economic losses, and the direct threat to food security are not palatable.
“This is not just about roads; it’s about national stability and the well-being of our people. I assure you that the Ministry, under the leadership of Engr. Umahi is committed to acting swiftly and decisively.”

The Managing Director of Benin-Owena River Basin Development Authority (BORBDA), Dr. Adekanmbi Samuel gave a detailed account of the challenges along the 24-kilometre stretch, emphasising the insecurity, economic dislocation, and impact on agriculture and power infrastructure.
He stressed the importance of inter- agency collaboration in supporting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s emergency declaration on food security.

Earlier, the Director of Highways, Bridges and Design, Engr. Bede Obioha, who stood in for the Permanent Secretary, acknowledged the urgency of the issues raised and commended the spirit of cooperation.

“We welcome engagements like this as they help us identify critical gaps. This Ministry remains responsive, committed to resolving transport-related challenges, wherever they occur,” he affirmed, assuring that the concerns raised would be captured for prompt action.
