While inspecting the tunnel, the commissioner noted that the technical drawings and design of the tunnel are nowhere to be found.
He stated that it was the considered opinion of the consultants and engineers of the ministry that the tunnel should be demolished in the interest of the public.
Nwosu further reiterated that it is better to err on the side of caution when issues of safety are involved especially for a busy road like the Assumpta Portharcourt road where the tunnel is situated.
The commisioner then called on Imo citizens, especially those who ply the road to exercise patience with the contractor and the government as a lasting solution is being put in place to save that spot.
He added that the shared prosperity government led by His Excellency Governor Hope Uzodinma is determined to serve Imo people better as anchored on her 3R Agenda.
