The ongoing road expansion project in Enugu promises to ease traffic congestion and boost economic activity, but it’s also causing considerable disruption. While many welcome the prospect of smoother commutes and increased business opportunities, others are worried about the impact on their livelihoods. Small businesses along the construction route have been forced to relocate, and some residents are concerned about the environmental consequences of the project. A balanced approach is needed, one that prioritizes progress while minimizing the negative impact on the community.
