…Hails Contractors For Quality Of Work Executed
The Governor of Kogi State, Ahmed Usman Ododo, on Friday inspected several ongoing and completed projects across Kabba-Bunu Local Government Area of the state.
Ododo, during the inspection tour, charged citizens to take ownership of public facilities and infrastructure provided by the government, stressing that such projects are meant to serve the people directly.
He commended the contractors for the quality of work delivered across the local government area.
The Governor also commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his relentless efforts toward transforming Nigeria’s economy and ensuring improved resources for massive infrastructural development across the country.
According to Ododo, Tinubu is a leader who believes in consolidation and continuity, urging the people to continue supporting him.
“I thank a father, a leader, a president who believes in giving back to his people, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He’s a man of the people, a leader who leads from the front and does not play politics with the lives of his citizens. I appreciate him for giving us the opportunity and resources to deliver these projects for our people,” Governor Ododo stated.
He further noted that President Tinubu had urged sub-national governments to focus on projects that directly benefit their citizens, which aligns with his administration’s ongoing initiatives.
“Mr. President said we must look back home, and that’s exactly what we’re doing. These projects were initiated under his vision of justice and development for the people. We’re here to inspect the progress, and within the shortest possible time — before the end of this year, these projects will be commissioned,” he added.
Ododo reaffirmed his unwavering commitment to the transformative development of Kogi State, stressing that his mandate is to serve humanity.
He disclosed that about 90 to 95 percent of Primary Health Care Centers (PHCs) across the state would be completed and made operational before their official commissioning.
The Governor also called on citizens to disregard the propaganda of individuals discouraging community engagement with government, explaining that such interaction helps identify pressing needs that can be addressed effectively.
He appreciated the people of the communities for their support and cooperation, urging them to continue working closely with traditional rulers and stakeholders while providing credible security intelligence to relevant authorities.
“Don’t allow criminals to find shelter in your communities,” he charged.
At the Palace of the Obaro of Kabba, Ododo highlighted that his visit to Kabba-Bunu LGA was not only to inspect ongoing projects but also to appreciate the traditional council for its steadfast support to his administration and the progress of Kogi State.
“We’re here to assess the impact of ongoing government projects, particularly the ecological projects and developments at Kogi State University, Kabba, to ensure they meet the needs of our people. These projects reflect our determination to bring governance closer to the grassroots.
