Goronyo meets FERMA, advocates openness, stakeholders’ engagement

Nigerian Minister of State (HMS), Ministry of Works, Bello Muhammad Goronyo, has urged the Management and Board of the Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA) to give regular updates to the National Assembly and other Stakeholders, in order to bridge communication gaps.

The HMS gave this charge at a meeting with the management of FERMA and Members of its Board led by the Managing Director/CEO, Engr. (Dr.) Chukwuemeka Agbasi, on Wednesday, in Abuja.
According to the statement released by the Ministry, the meeting, was the continuation of a prior one held in Kano on Monday, 4th November, 2024 aimed at articulating a work plan with a clear roadmap for FERMA activities nationwide.

It was also to address the fallout of the invitation by the National Assembly, where the need to upscale communication between the two was emphasised; the need to always bring Board Members up to speed with the activities of the Agency.
Also, grey areas observed in the non- implementation of the 2024 budget, as well as drawing a template for on-going FERMA projects with a view to embarking on a visit to all the geo- political zones to access projects being undertaken by the Agency.

He appreciated the Management of FERMA and the Board for the visit, promising that more of such engagements will be held to bring the benefits of the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, which seeks to enhance infrastructure and transportation as enablers of growth.
