Nasarawa State governor Abdullahi Sule has promised to transform the infrastructural outlay of Lafia, the state capital through the construction of the first ever underpass in the ancient town.

The governor said the design for the Lafia underpass is already with the Federal Ministry of Works for approval. An underpass or subway is a passage underneath a busy road or a railway track for the use of pedestrians and cyclists.

“The next big project that I have in mind is building the first underpass in the history of Nasarawa State.  That underpass is going to be in Lafia. Lafia is going to have an underpass similar to what obtains in advanced countries. The design is awaiting approval also by the Federal Ministry of Works,” he explained.

The governor also said works on the dualization of a section of Akwanga township road in Akwanga local government area of the state will soon commence. The affected road, according to him, links the Ismaila Abbas petrol station-Akwanga roundabout-AYM Shafa petrol station. He explained that his administration has already approved the release of 50 percent of the total contract sum to the contractor handling the project.

“We did something that we don’t usually do. When we give a contract, we usually give the contractor 30 percent mobilization.  But because Nasarawa State is blessed now, just like so many other places, as a result of improved revenue. I approved 50 percent of the money to the contractor to ensure that he will do this work in time.

“That would give him the opportunity to buy all the materials to be able to do something.  I told him before I come back from my trip that I want to see some significant amount of work that is being done,” he stated.
