- Sheriff Oborevwori directed Julius Berger Nigeria Plc to begin immediate repairs on the collapsed section near Agbarho.
- The section failed after heavy rainfall triggered erosion, causing hardship for motorists, residents and businesses along the route.
- Commissioner Charles Aniagwu disclosed the directive in a statement issued in Asaba on Thursday.
- The state intervention concerns federally owned infrastructure, while motorists were urged to drive cautiously during the ongoing works.
Consequently, he has directed Julius Berger to immediately intervene and undertake remedial works on the failed portion of the road.— Charles Aniagwu, Delta State Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, in a statement issued in Asaba
