Contractors in trouble over poor job (Nation)

Contractors who failed to adhere to job specifications in Kebbi state would face sanction, governor Atiku Bagudu warned Tuesday.

Bagudu gave the warning in a statement by Abubakar Dakingari, his Chief Press Secretary, in the state capital, Birnin Kebbi.

‘‘I will not tolerate poor execution of work from any contractor,” he said.

He issued the warning after he received a complaint from the Emir of Zuru, Alhaji Muhammadu Sami on the poor execution of Zuru township roads by the contractors.

Bagudu also faulted the state engineers for poor monitoring of ongoing projects across the state and warned them to live up to their responsibilities.

The governor appealed to communities to always report erring contractors to his office for appropriate action.

“My administration is constructing 367 kilometres of road network throughout the state, with Sakaba- Dan-Kolo Road in Zuru Emirate as the longest.

“I am not happy about the rehabilitation of Maga-Ribah Road where the government expended more than N500 million but portholes have started resurfacing,” he said.
