GOVERNOR ABDULRAZAQ INSPECTS, CALLS ONGOING BODE SAADU/KAIAMA/KOSUBOSU ROAD CONSTRUCTION ‘MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH’
Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq on Thursday visited under-construction Bode Saadu/Kaiama/Kosubosu road project, calling it a major breakthrough for the state and Nigeria.
Valued at over N350bn, the Governor said the road will open up Nigeria’s economy with other West African countries such as the Republic of Benin and strengthen the protocols on African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
In a Statement by Rafiu Ajakaye, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, AbdulRazaq thanked the Federal Government and BUA Group for embarking on the project, and commended the affected communities for their patience.
The Governor, who drove some distance on the road in the company of the Supervisory Commissioner for Works Hon Abdulquawiy Olododo, said the road project will lessen travel time from Kwara to Niger and Oyo states, adding that the construction period is estimated to last three (3) years.
