Governor Akwe Doma said most of the people living in the state's rural areas do not have access to basic amenities and that his administration will therefore improve the road network, electricity supply and water provision.

Some of the projects under the rural transformation scheme include:

  • the construction of the Guto-Bagana Bridge across the River Benue;
  • the construction and/or rehabilitation of Doma-Akpanaja road, Toto-Umaisha road, Gitata-Panda-Guruku-Mararaba road, Adudu-Ribi-Azara road, Gudi-Rinze-Nunku road, Nasarawa Eggon-Mada Station road and Kokona-Awada-Udege road; and
  • the intensifying of the rural electrification scheme.
