The Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA) has said that most Nigerian roads and highways considered death traps over the years have expired and need constant maintenance.
FERMA’s Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Nuruddeen Rafindadi, disclosed this on Saturday in Kaduna at the 10th Mahmud Armiya’u memorial lecture and presentation of awards, organised by the Kaduna branch of the Nigeria Society of Engineers.

The FERMA boss, while painting the bad state of the nation’s roads and highways, noted that some of the roads were built to last for certain number of years, but had regrettably exceeded their life spans.
