He appealed to road users to exercise patience since the road will be fixed in no distant time .

Some road users Messrs Emmanuel Nwankwo, Michael Chielo who regretted the hardship they endure on the road, prayed for abundant blessings upon the Governor and urged him not to relent as they are solidly behind him.
