The Federal government has replied critics over the unending award of contracts and external borrowing, a few days before the expiration of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, declared that the Muhammadu Buhari administration will award contracts by midnight of May 28.
Fashola said this in Akure, the Ondo state capital, while flagging off the N 90 billion dualisation of the 49km dilapidated Akure/Ado-Ekiti highway.
According to him, People are asking why we are still awarding contracts when we have just a few days to go. Should we stop this road now and wait for the next government?
” It is a juvenile conversation. They forgot, among other things, that the term of this administration ends at midnight on May 28.
