Describing the projects as tangible evidence of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, Governor Okpebholo expressed satisfaction with the scope and pace of work. He said the 10-lane expressway, which spans approximately 20 kilometers, is expected to have a significant portion completed before Christmas 2025.

 

“This is part of the Renewed Hope Agenda of Mr. President. He is taking this road straight to Asaba. It is going to be 10 lanes five on one side, five on the other side,” the Governor stated during the inspection.

 

Accompanied by officials from Africa Plus Partners and the Benin-Asaba Expressway Concession Company Limited, Okpebholo emphasized that the infrastructure expansion was a direct outcome of high-level collaboration between the federal and state governments.

 

“Remember when this road was flagged off a few months ago, the Minister for Works was here. The Minister for Finance was also here. And I was here. This is the fruit of that flag-off. And this is the demonstration of Mr. President’s Renewed Hope Agenda for our people,” he added.

 

Project Director, Mr. K. V. Rao, explained that preliminary works, including traffic diversion and palliative measures, are already in motion. Full-scale construction, he disclosed, will begin on August 5, 2025.

 

“What is currently going on right now is a palliative work to divert the entire traffic on the right-hand side of the road,” Rao said. “Real work will transform the existing road into a ten-lane highway featuring two main carriageways with two lanes left, two lanes right, and two dedicated service roads on both sides.”

 

The Governor also inspected other major projects, including the reconstruction of Amufi Road, which connects the Amufi, Okpagha, Iyanomo, and Egiekpe communities, as well as the ongoing flyover construction at Ramat Park a strategic intervention aimed at decongesting traffic and enhancing urban mobility.

 

Together, these projects are poised to redefine connectivity, economic activity, and daily life in Benin City and the surrounding areas. Governor Okpebholo reiterated his administration’s resolve to align Edo State with the broader vision of the Tinubu-led federal government.

 

“The Renewed Hope Agenda is not just a slogan it’s a blueprint for real, visible, and measurable development,” Okpebholo declared.
