Ahmed to complete projects
Kwara State Governor Abulfatah Ahmed yesterday promised to pay more attention to ongoing infrastructural projects which his predecessor, Dr Bukola Saraki, started.
Addressing reporters in Ilorin, the state capital, when he inspected some of the projects, Ahmed said: "I will place priority on all ongoing projects because they have been commenced with public funds and they are designed to meet public interest. So, getting them abandoned will not only amount to wastage but also will deny the people access to the facilities. That is why I am embarking on this on-the-spot assessment of all ongoing projects."
Among the projects he inspected are Metropolitan Square; Diagnostic Centre; Judges’ Quarters; Akerebiata road project; and Ilorin Stadium rehabilitation, all within the Ilorin metropolis.
The governor expressed satisfaction on the level of work on some of the projects.
He said: "We are happy with the level of work in some of the projects so far inspected, but we could be happier. We are quite satisfied with the work on the Judges’ Quarters. The Akerebiata road is a bit slow for the kind of expectation that we have. Of course, the diagnostic centre is also a little bit short of our expectations. As for the Metropolitan, we are happy with the work that has been completed so far. What is left to be completed is taking longer than necessary.
"There are resource constraints, but contractors must necessarily apply capacity to engage in this kind of business and should enjoy spontaneous financing. We will do everything on our own side to ensure that the projects are properly funded within our arranged cash flow framework."
