Minister of Works, Engr David Umahi has expressed sadness
over the slow pace of work on the Enugu-Onitsha expressway.
Umahi expressed dismay that work on expressway was not
encouraging.
The minister made his feelings known while inspecting the
project at the weekend.
He urged the contractors to rise to their responsibilities
and ensure timely completion of the projects.
Meanwhile, the minister also inspected other ongoing
projects in the South-South and South-East to ensure speedy delivery of
projects.
In Delta State, he said, “I am particularly not impressed
with the work done by CCECC on the Warri-Benni-Asaba Road and I expressed
concern about the slow pace of work on the Efurun-Sapele section and urged the
contractors to intensify their efforts to meet the project’s deadline.
“Timely completion is crucial, and I expect all contractors
to work diligently towards achieving this goal ”
He appreciated the synergy between Delta State government
and the Federal Government on projects ongoing in the state.
“The Delta State Government’s proactive approach in taking
over the payment of compensation to affected individuals has been instrumental
in fast-tracking these projects.
“I am confident that this collaboration will yield positive
results, and I assure the state government that the Federal Ministry of Works
will honor its commitments”, he said.
The former Governor of Ebonyi State also inspected ongoing
construction of Eke-Obinagu flyover in Enugu State and expressed satisfaction
with the progress of work.
