The residents of Tudun Kauri in Lafia Local Government Area of Nasarawa state, have commended the state government following the ongoing construction of access road in the area.
The residents who suffered hardship over the years during the rains stated their views when Channels Television visited the area.
The area is one of the streets worst hit by flood over the years which has made the residents face hardship.
The governor on his visit to the area early this year promised to build culverts and water channels before the rain sets in.
The construction led to the demolition of some houses but Gov. Al-Makura also promised to compensate affected persons.
Already, the compensation has been paid and the construction has began.
Residents have however applaud the government for the gesture as they believe it will end the difficulties faced but are appealing to the contractors to complete the road before the rain starts.
