State Spends N7bn On Road Project In One Year

Date: 2017-08-23

The Kwara Government said on Tuesday that it has spent about N7 billion on road infrastructure, since September 2016 when its Infrastructural Fund Initiative (IF-K) was launched.

The State's Commissioner for Works and Transport, Alhaji Aro Yahaya said this in Ilorin while speaking at the Media Parliament organised by the state council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ).

Yahaya explained that the fund assisted the state to complete all inherited road projects and the newly approved ones.

The commissioner assured people of the state that all road projects would be completed before the expiration of tenure of the present administration in the state.

He said that most contractors handling various road projects in the state had abandoned their project sites before the discovery of the IF-K funding window in 2016.

The commissioner noted that the contractors returned to sites before the new funding window which guaranteed regular release of money for all ongoing projects.

The commissioner said on the ongoing construction of Diamond Underpass at Geri-Alimi in Ilorin, which was to ease vehicular movement along the route, would be completed within the next 12 months.
