Roads people can hold someone to
Agbor–Amukpe, Benin–Agbor–Asaba, Agbor–Owa–Mbiri–Igbodo: three roads and one question. Who owes Ika a finished road, and by when?
The facts
The Abavo Clan Union says a 2014 contract for the Agbor–Amukpe road was abandoned and that the road has become a kidnapping hotspot. The campaign has not independently confirmed the contract’s status.

His commitment
Attract federal projects to Ika and list each one on the public Ika Project Register: contractor, promised completion date, status and a dated photograph. If a date passes, the Register says so. And put the questions to the responsible agencies on the floor of the House, with the answers on the Report Card.
