Babagana Zulum, the governor of Borno State has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to completing all ongoing projects before the expiration of his tenure, urging the contractor to take advantage of the current weather conditions to accelerate construction.
Zulum gave the assurance on Monday in an interview with journalists, shortly after inspecting ambitious projects within the Maiduguri metropolis that have a direct impact on the state’s socio-economic advancement.
“The people of the state are happy because we have delivered hundreds of projects across the state, and we shall ensure that all ongoing projects are completed. We are also willing to introduce additional projects where possible,” he said.
Zulum, who inspected projects, included the 4,0,0, the International Conference Centre, the Post Office Flyover, and the dualization of 2.5 kilometres of Takilometreseitel Shoe and Tennary through Maiduguri Cattle Market.
He assured that the state government would continue to provide the necessary funding for the projects, expressing satisfaction with the progress recorded, particularly at the International Conference Centre and the Post Office Flyover.
“So far, we have visited all the sites, and I am impressed with the level of work done, especially at the International Conference Centre and the Post Office Flyover,” Zulum said.
“Insha Allah, we shall leave no stone unturned before the end of our tenure to ensure that all projects with direct impact on the people are completed,” he added.
The governor warned that any outstanding work not completed within the stipulated period would be reassigned to relevant government agencies to ensure timely delivery.
