Nigerian Minister of Works, Senator (Engr) David Umahi has expressed disappointment of the current state of Suleja-Minna road while described it as an eyesore and very discouraging.

Umahi disclosed this at a Stakeholders’ Engagement on the construction of 125- kilometre Section (Niger State component) of the Sokoto – Badagry Superhighway in Minna, Niger State, discussed the development of road infrastructure.

The Minister further lamented that despite bogus claim of 84% completion, the so-called company has been collecting Federal funds for over 14 years without commensurate work on the project.
He also stated that President Tinubu’s administration prioritises investments aimed at stimulating growth across multiple sectors of our national life.

Umahi revealed that the present administration inherited 2,604 projects, soliciting for National Assembly’s support in securing special intervention funds to complete them, as well as other new projects.

He pleaded with Nigerians to remain patient and supportive of the President’s effort towards improving their wellbeing.
The Minister further explained that the Renewed Hope Administration’s shift from asphaltic to concrete pavement, in road construction, is informed by its cost effectiveness and sustainability due to the use of locally souced materials.

Earlier, the State Governor, Mohammed Umar Bago called on the Federal Government to revoke the Suleja-Minna road contract due, majorly, to lack of capacity exhibited by the contractor, Messrs Stabilini (Nig.) Ltd.

Instead, H.E. Bago recommended that contractors with proven capabilities in delivering quality works be engaged to complete the lingering project.

The Governor assured his Guest of the state’s support for President Bola Tinibu’s administration, emphasising the need for engaging reliable contractors to ensure quality and timely completion of projects.
He also unveiled plans to establish a cement factory in Niger State, leveraging the state’s abundant raw materials, in order to cash in on the use of concrete pavement in the construction of the new alignment.

Also, the House Committee Chairman on Works, Akin Alabi called for the declaration of a “state of emergency” on Niger’s Federal roads, advising the Minister to engage an independent consultant to assess all ongoing road and bridge projects, nationwide.

In his Remarks, the Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry Of Works, Yakubu Adam Kofarmata, Ph.D emphasises the need for stakeholders in the state to join hands with the Federal Government by supporting the Renewed Agenda, as Mr. President has done well in the development of the State and he will continue to champion infrastructural development.

He assured the good people of the state and the nation, at large, that Mr President has not neglected the Northern part of the country, in whatever guise.
