They expressed appreciation to Governor Lawal for responding to their plight and pledged their support and cooperation to ensure timely and successful completion of the project.

Responding, the Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Bungudu, who received the delegation on behalf of the governor, assured that the state government would ensure quality and timely delivery of the project in line with Governor Lawal’s urban and rural renewal agenda.
