Minister of works, Arc.
Mike Onolememen said the construction of Kundila bridge and road in Kano state
will be delivered in 18 months.
He stated this when he
had a meeting with Kano state stakeholders and Senator Bashir Mohammed
yesterday in his office in Abuja.
The minister stressed
that the projects in Kano state are carefully selected in order to facilitate
President Goodluck Jonathan transformation agenda. He noted that the flyover at
Kundila is in the right direction because it will make road safer and decongest
traffic in that area like in Lagos.
Onolememen said, “With
the transformation agenda of Mr. President, we will deliver better roads to
Nigerians so that our citizens can enjoy the benefits of the dividends of
democracy from one part of the country to the other as it is obtainable in
other parts of the world.
“The bridge is actually
along Kano-Kaduna dual carriageway. If you conversant with traffic in that
area, the Kundila bridge will make road safer and decongest traffic in that
area.”
Speaking earlier, the
leader of delegation, Senator Bashir Mohammed, who is also the vice chairman,
Senate committee on works said the project will boost economic activities in
the State.
