The Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has expressed appreciation to President Muhammadu Buhari for approving the rehabilitation of four major roads in the State
The roads are: Kosubosu-Kaiama-Bode Saadu (130km); Bacita-Shonga-Lafiagi (83km); Eiyenkorin-Afon-Offa-Odo Ottin (49km); and Okuta-Bukuro Road, which connects to the Benin Republic (32km). These come to 294km in all.
According to the Governor, the roads will be constructed under the Infrastructure Tax Credit Scheme (Executive Order 7).
“Upon completion, these projects will revolutionise road travels within Kwara and neighbouring states, with huge potentials for development and food security.”
The Federal Executive Council meeting chaired by the President in Abuja had on Wednesday granted approvals to BUA Group for the rehabilitation of four major roads in Kwara State.
“Today, our efforts to further open up our state for socioeconomic growth yielded huge returns as the Federal Executive Council (FEC) graciously granted approvals to the BUA Group for the rehabilitation of four major roads in Kwara State, the governor declared.
“We thank President Muhammadu Buhari for this landmark development. We similarly commend BUA for keying into the laudable initiative.
“Our administration will offer all the support to make these projects come through for the benefit of our people,” the Governor added.
