    The Public-Private Partnership (PPP) project, which is expected to be finished in 30 months, intends to boost economic growth and enhance connectivity in both Edo and Delta States.

    Monday Okpebholo, the governor of Edo State, represented the president during the project’s formal debut.

    In his statement, Okpebholo emphasized the project as an unmistakable illustration of the current government’s unwavering commitment to improving infrastructure across Nigeria.

    Governor Okpebholo added that the project, which is expected to be finished in 30 months through a Public-Private Partnership (PPP), intends to boost economic growth and enhance connectivity in both Delta and Edo States.

    I had the privilege of representing President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the 125-kilometer Benin-Asaba Highway’s formal flag-off today. This historic project will improve connectivity and stimulate the economies of Edo and Delta States. This Public-Private Partnership (PPP) project, which is expected to be finished in 30 months, demonstrates the President’s steadfast dedication to infrastructure development throughout Nigeria.

    “I am grateful to Engineer Dave Umahi, Minister of Works, for his positive remarks regarding the work being done in Edo State by our administration. We have transformed our state into a giant construction hub in just 150 days, and important projects like the Ramat Park flyover are already making great strides.

    I also applaud Wale Edun, the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, for guaranteeing that the project’s financial structure is in place and that it would be carried out smoothly from beginning to end.

    “I would want to express my gratitude to Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, who was well-represented by his deputy, Chief Monday John Onyeme, as well as all of the dignitaries who attended this momentous occasion. We’re working together to make sure Edo and the whole area reap the benefits of democracy! “A New Edo Has Emerged.” On Sunday, March 23, the Governor posted a message on his 𝕏 account.
