He expressed satisfaction with the pace of work so far, stressing that the contractors have shown capacity to deliver the project on schedule.

He said “that is why I insisted that we will only give out jobs to contractors who show capacity and not based on sentiment.

I am happy that the communities are happy. You can see how they came out in numbers to celebrate the progress of work so far,” he said.

The minister thanked the area council chairman, the youths and community members of the affected communities for supporting the execution of the projects.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the minister had so far inspected 11 projects from Feb. 12 till date, nine in the city centre and two in Kwali Area Council.
