In order to ensure timely delivery of ongoing projects in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, the FCT Minister, Barrister Nyesom Wike, has reiterated readiness to constantly monitor activities of the contractors, so as to keep contractors on their toes.
Wike said his constant and unscheduled visit to project sites was to ensure that the contractors deliver on agreed quality and within expected timeframe.
He added that the contractors had promised to deliver most of the projects by May, adding that he was on their toes to ensure that they deliver as promised.
He spoke yesterday, after inspecting ongoing road projects in Guzape and the full-scale development of arterial road ‘N20′ at Jahi District, from N8,9 Northern Parkway (Shehu Musa Yar’adua Expressway), to Outer Northern Expressway (Murtala Mohammed Expressway), within the Federal Capital City.
According to him:“We make sure that we go round to see the commitments made by the various contractors to see whether they are going to fulfil the promises they have made.
“On Saturday, we also had this kind of inspection and today, we went to Guzape, the diplomatic zone and now we are on N20 road.
“The last time I came here, the work was not up to this extent, and I am very much impressed with what I have seen.
“This shows that God willing, by May, they will hand over these projects to us and then we will hand them over to the public.”
