The site supervisor of the ongoing Warji General Hospital project, Balami Samson, has assured that the new 150-bed facility would be completed within one month as it is now 80 per cent complete.
Balami disclosed this yesterday during an inspection tour by journalists to projects executed by the Bala Mohammed administration across Bauchi State.
“All modern equipment is being used in the construction, and once completed, this hospital will go a long way in addressing the health challenges of the people in Warji local government area,” he said.
The chairman of Warji local government area, Hon. Aminu Barmini, commended Governor Mohammed for executing life-changing projects in the local government.
According to him, the administration has awarded several projects, including the construction of the 19-kilometre road from Warji to Gwaram, the District Head of Warji’s Palace, the Burarana-Dabo Road, erosion control project, a new hospital in Miya, Dabo village head’s palace construction, and Juma’at mosques, among others.
He noted that the people of Warji were grateful for the governor’s interventions, which he said has touched critical sectors of the community.
During an inspection of the newly completed 5km Burarana-Dabo Road, residents of the area expressed their appreciation to the governor for bringing development to the area.
A resident, Zubairu Muhammad of Dabo Ward, said the road has transformed their lives.
“We honestly have nothing to say to the governor except gratitude. It used to take us three hours to commute on this road, but now we cover it in just a few minutes. The governor has built us a road with a big erosion control culvert. Thank you very much,” he said.
On his part, the Bauchi State Commissioner for Information, Hon. Usman Shehu, explained that the journalists embarked on the tour to monitor projects awarded by Governor Mohammed.
