The commencement of Abakaliki-Ishieke-Enugu old road by Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State has thrown Ebonyi State University students into celebration mood as the road will give them easy access to their school as reported by Francis Nwaze Special Assistant to Ebonyi State Governor on Media.
AFNews gathered that the road was hitherto a death trap to users and a heartache to students plying it as it was filled with potholes.
The road which is under construction is an 8 inches concrete pavement dualized road, making way for free movement of the road users.
The most affected people on this development apart from the Ishieke community are the Ebonyi State University students who access their main campus, market and residence through the road.
Some students during our visit to the construction site appreciated and thanked Gov. Umahi for the quality of work being done on the road.
