'Let me inform you thatI personally flagged off the construction of the Amansea-Ebenebe-Oba-Ofemili road. I started it from the scratch. I do not know what somebody stands to gain by claiming what he did not do.'We had our challenges on the road, including the broken Ebenebe Bridge which we shall complete very soon. I assure people of the area that having started the road, we shall complete it within the life of this government.
