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.”

The director said the road, when completed would boost the economy of the nation and the North Central region in particular as it leads to the Baro Port through which goods and services can be brought into the country and exported to other countries.
