Dear Mr. President, I am writing to bring to your attention the deplorable condition of the Gombe-Dukku-Kano Road, which has been a source of concern for commuters, traders, and residents of the affected areas.

The Gombe-Dukku-Kano Road is a critical artery that connects the northeastern states to the rest of the country. However, the road has been in a state of disrepair for several years, causing untold hardship to road users. The road is characterized by potholes, craters, and erosion, making it impassable during the rainy season.

The poor condition of the road has led to increased travel times, vehicle maintenance costs, and accidents. It has also affected the economy of the region, as traders and commuters are forced to take longer routes, resulting in increased costs and reduced productivity.

Furthermore, the road's poor condition has also affected the security of the region, as it provides a conduit for criminal elements to operate. The road's rehabilitation would not only improve the economic fortunes of the region but also enhance security.

In view of the above, I respectfully urge your administration to give special attention to the rehabilitation of the Gombe-Dukku-Kano Road. The road's rehabilitation would be a significant boost to the economy and security of the region.

I would appreciate it if your administration could expedite action on this matter.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
