The Federal Government says it will use funds generated from toll gates to maintain the roads.
The Director General of the Bureau of Public Enterprises (BPE), Mr. Ayodeji Ariyo Gbeleyi, stated this at the Garaku Toll Station, Km 32, Keffi-Akwanga Section, Keffi, Nasarawa State, during the inauguration of the 227.2km Abuja-Keffi-Lafia-Makurdi Road Corridor.
He said tolling operations on Nigerian roads would mark a significant milestone in the country’s journey towards sustainable road infrastructure development.

According to him, “They facilitate trade, enhance mobility, and improve the overall quality of life.”
