Ahead of the commissioning of the Digital Industrial Park (DIP) project in Kano state, the executive vice chairman of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Prof. Umar Garba Danbatta, has, once again, paid an inspection visit to the site of the ongoing construction of the project in Kano state where he got an unequivocal commitment from the contractors that the project will be completed by January 2023.
The Friday’s inspection call by the NCC’s boss was part of the routine visits to ensure close monitoring and effective supervision of important projects that will have great impacts on the country’s socio-economic development.
During the visit, the EVC, who was accompanied by the NCC’s head of Projects, Philip Eretan, and the EVC’s chief of staff, Malam Hafiz Shehu, among others, with the special Adviser to the Kano state governor, Prof. Yusif Alhassan, in attendance, emphasised the need for the contractors to expedite efforts in completing the project on schedule.
Addressing the contractors, Danbatta said that both the federal and the state governments are following the progress being made at the construction site with keen interest owing to the value addition the project would make not only to the economy of the North-West geo-political zone but also to the country as a whole.
