Plateau State commissioner for Works, Hon. Ubandoma Laven, has disclosed that the state government has rehabilitated and completed 49 abandoned road projects in the last 18 months.
Laven made this known while addressing newsmen in Jos at the weekend.

The commissioner was reacting to the allegations raised by a Federal House of Representatives member representing Pankshin Kanke, Kanam Hon Yusuf Gagdi, that the Federal Government was funding 80 per cent of ongoing projects in the state.

LEADERSHIP reports that the member made the allegation while responding to questions on national television about the state government’s performance in the last 18 months.
Gagdi, during the interview, also accused the state government of neglecting the people of his constituency.

Laven explained that the various road projects were scattered across the Jos-Bukuru metropolis and maintained that the Mutfwang-led government had ensured even distribution of projects across the state.

The Commissioner said that the current administration, under the leadership of Governor Caleb Mutfwang, is determined to complete all abandoned projects and that the move aims to give the Jos and Bukuru metropolis a facelift.

“As you all know, infrastructure development that will propel economic rebirth is one of the cardinal agenda of this administration”.

“The governor has vowed that all abandoned projects in the state will be completed, and no part of the state will be left behind.

“Between September 2023 and now, this government has rehabilitated and completed 49 road projects within the Jos-Bukuru metropolis.

“This government has not yet awarded any new road contract; the governor is determined to complete all abandoned projects before commencing new ones,” he said.

Laven also faulted Gagdi’s claims about the ongoing projects in the state and called on the lawmaker to appreciate and support the Mutfwang-led administration’s developmental strides.

“The governor is focused on providing quality leadership to Plateau people. He will not be distracted by baseless allegations.

“Our governor has laid a solid and lasting foundation for the state, and all he needs now is the prayers and support of the Plateau people for him to succeed.

“So, I urge our brother, Gagdi, to concentrate on the business of lawmaking and allow the governor to concentrate on giving Plateau people the desired leadership,” Laven said.

Gagdi, who had again addressed newsmen in Jos, maintained that the allegations were his opinion.

“What I said was my personal opinion; I never insulted the governor nor the government of Plateau.

”I stand by what I said because the people of my constituency have not yet felt the presence of the state government.

“As their representative, the onus is on me to speak for them,” he said.
