Kwara State Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed promised yesterday that "abandoned project syndrome" will disappear in the state.

The governor promised not to leave any community unattended to by his administration's projected development initiatives, noting however, that such efforts would be in phases.

He called on indigenes leaving outside the state to come home and contribute to its development.

The governor said his administration has provided the needed environment for investment to thrive, adding that there were many lucrative business opportunities in the state.

Ahmed made the pledge at the inauguration of the rehabilitated Ijara-Isin-Isanlu-Isin and Oro-Ijomu-Oro roads in Isin and Irepodun local governments.

He said most projects are being implemented through multiple financing windows, due to the current financial situation of the country.

The governor described the promise as part of the commitment of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the provision of infrastructure in the state.

His words: "This government shall not rest on its oars in providing necessary infrastructures for its people.

"I assure all those communities whose road, education, health, and other key required projects are yet to feature that these projects are being implemented in phases and funded through multiple financing windows.

"No community, therefore, will be left out as we embark on the next phase of our state's development.

"Our choice of this road to kick-start the third year anniversary of our administration is not mere coincidence.

"It is an expression of our love for the benefiting communities as well as Isin Local Government Area.

"This commissioning also signifies our non-partisan approach to the distribution and location of critical infrastructure.

"As a people focused-administration, we remain committed to even development across the state by ensuring equity in the location of infrastructure.

"As you are all aware, this road was awarded in 2010 during the administration of Senator Bukola Saraki.

"In line with our commitment to projects of this nature and enhanced infrastructure development for the people, we ensured the completion of this project.

"Anyone who opposes critically needed projects such as this road and others proposed for implementation across the state cannot be a friend of this community and indeed the people of Kwara State.

"I assure you that we shall continue to emphasise road construction to promote the socio-economic wellbeing of the people of this state."
