The Kwara State Government, North Central Nigeria has officially unveiled the kick-off of the construction of the Court House project in Ilorin, the State Capital.

The project, which is a multi-billion naira court edifice, will be a six-storey building equipped with eight courtrooms, offices, a conference hall and a library among other modern facilities to ease the operation of the judiciary in Kwara State.

While handing over the project to the Consultant at the site along Ahmadu Bello Way, the Commissioner for Housing and Urban Development, Segun Ogunsola said the Court House Complex is in line with the vision of the State Government to enhance judicial services.

Ogunsola disclosed that the Governor, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq conceived the project, which is the first of its kind in Africa, to reinforce his determination to revamp every sector of the state.

The Commissioner congratulated Governor AbdulRazaq on his birthday anniversary, assuring that on completion, the project will be a model for the judiciary sector in Nigeria.

He, however, urged the Contractor to deliver a good job and ensure that the project complies with the best standard obtainable in order to justify the trust reposed in the company.

For his part, the General Manager, Kwara State Procurement Agency, Abdulbaki Abdulraheem, congratulated residents on yet another outstanding project of the present administration, saying the government will not relent in its effort to positively transform the state.

Abdulraheem enjoined the Contractor to ensure that the project meets the expectation of the State Government and the set deadline, noting that the court house will add immense value to the infrastructural repositioning efforts of the State Government.

Speaking on behalf of the Contractor, Craneburg International, the Consultant, Baron Architecture, Babatunde Sofola, pledged to do a thorough job and deliver the project according to the terms of the contract agreement.

Sofola added that the project is a testament of the priority placed by Governor AbdulRazaq on quality project that would meet global standard and effectively serve the interest of the people.
