Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri of Adamawa State has won the 2022 Distinguished Award for Infrastructure Delivery in Nigeria.
The Nigeria Excellence Awards in Public Service organised by The Best Strategic Media in conjunction with the Office Of The Secretary to The Government of the Federation will be presented by President Muhammadu Buhari on the 21st of October at an occasion to be held at the State House Conference Centre in Abuja, the nation’s capital.
Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri while commending the process which rated his effectiveness in the provisions of Infrastructure and democratic dividends, dedicated it to the people of Adamawa State.
“The process gives me hope that a new Nigeria is possible despite our differences. I commend the Federal Government for ensuring decorum and transparency in its assessment without bias through monitoring quality of jobs being executed. I am happy that our little contribution to the growth and development of Adamawa State has been noticed.”
Governor Fintiri noted that his Government had striven to maintain fiscal discipline by keeping public expenditure within allocated funding.
He added that the approach has been very useful in helping his administration achieve rural-urban integration and urban renewal through massive development of infrastructure, which is one of the cardinal objective of his 11point agenda.
While calling for support to enable it to continue with the good work that the Federal Government has seen and recognised, the Governor reassured them of his administration’s commitment to awarding and commissioning more projects until his last day in office.
“To whom much is given, much is also expected, I assure you that no project will be abandoned and in keeping with our philosophy no community will be left behind and nothing will be left untouched. I therefore dedicate this award to the good people of Adamawa State that have given us the mandate to serve them. Your decision is not misplaced,“ the Governor said.
