Ganduje Commissions VIP Lodge, Road Projects In Nasarawa

National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, yesterday commissioned the new  VIP lodge and three intra city roads estimated at 1.7km in Akwanga, headquarters of Akwanga local government area of Nasarawa State.

Commissioning the lodge, the national chairman commended Governor Abdullahi Sule for undertaking the projects, stressing that the essence of state creation was to spread development across the country.

According to Ganduje, after developing Lafia, next in line is to select some big towns like Akwanga.

“You can see how development is trickling down to the people.  I am happy for this lodge, completed and fully furnished so that important personalities will come and dialogue, start and discuss issues of development pertaining to this local government area and others under this senatorial district,” he stated.

Ganduje pointed out that the edifice would add value to infrastructural facilities, giving Akwanga a face-lift.

“I’m so happy to be here because of this great, important project. The whole idea of creating a state is for the distribution of development across the country. So, seeing is believing,” he said.

Governor Abdullahi Sule said the idea behind the initiative was to build similar projects in all the three senatorial zones of the state to comfortably accommodate visitors.

“We have completed the one in Keffi. Of course, the lodge in Lafia has been completed and furnished. Akwanga happens to be the headquarters of the Nasarawa North senatorial zone.  It is historical for us that you are going to commission three projects in Akwanga,” he said.

Governor Sule said the guest would also commission three roads namely;- Dankanzo road, Baba Alago Street and Central Mosque road, estimated at 1.7km, serving to connect neighborhoods in Akwanga.

The governor said the national chairman would also commission the new TUC House wholly built by his administration as a manifestation of the cordial relations existing between the government and organised labour in the state.
