  "summary": "The House of Representatives has called on the Federal Government to urgently repair the Agbede and Okpella sections of the Benin-Okene Federal Highway in Edo State. The resolution comes after Mr. Anamero Dekeri, a member representing Etsako East/Etsako West/Etsako Central Federal Constituency, moved a motion highlighting the worsening condition of the road and the challenges it has caused for motorists and residents. The motion emphasizes the need to address the road's deteriorating state, which has led to significant delays, increased transportation costs, and disruptions to daily life for those using the highway.",
