In a statement issued by the director of press and public relations department of the ministry, Blessing Lere-Adams, she said Esan disclosed that both roads were being funded by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) under the Tax Credit Scheme introduced by the federal government.

Folorunsho expressed satisfaction with the pace and quality of work.

On the Suleja-Minna Road, he said; “My impression is that the contractor is on site making progress and we can see the various aspects of work, the earthwork, the pavement work and even the asphalt laying is going on smoothly, the only challenge is that of security but it is being taken care of with the presence of security agents.”

Speaking on the 52-kilometre Agaei-Baro Port Road which connects the Lambata-Bida Highway, Folorunsho said, “Work is progressing, 14 kilometres have been asphalted, earthwork is up to 32 kilometres and the rest which is about 18 kilometres is still outstanding, but we have the assurance that the work will be delivered on target.”
