The Federal Government has approved the resumption of three long-abandoned road projects in Jigawa State, which had been neglected for years and had led to the loss of lives and destruction of property due to frequent road accidents.
DAILY POST reported that state residents have raised concerns over how abandoned Federal Government road projects are threatening the lives and properties of citizens.
State Coordinator of the Tinubu Renewed Hope Agenda, Alhaji Musa Shuaibu Guri, and former Chairman of Guri Local Government, disclosed this while presenting President Bola Ahmad Tinubu’s season greeting card to the Emir of Gumel on Sunday.
He explained that President Bola Ahmad Tinubu is displeased with how the Gaya–Shiwarin, Gaya–Kafin Hausa and Kwanar Dumawa–Babura road projects have remained uncompleted for years, resulting in the loss of lives and property.
Guri said President Tinubu has ordered the immediate revocation of the contracts, which have now been awarded to other companies for completion.
He urged traditional rulers to champion prayers for peace, unity and stability in the country.
He added that the greeting card from the president is a testimony to the traditional rulers’ commitment to maintaining peace in the country.
According to him” The season greeting card will be extended to the five Emirate Council including Hadejia, Kazaure, Ringim and Dutse emirates respectively.
