From Dan Garba Yola
Gov. Muhammadu Jibrilla Bindow of Adamawa has said that his administration has given road contractors who abandoned the job an ultimatum to resumed work or refund the money collected.
Consequently, some contractors who collected money from past administrations have already started returning to site.
Speaking to newsmen Thursday on the development in Yola, Bindow said that his administration would ensure that any contractor that collected government money delivered on the project.
“This government is a no-nonsense government; we have told them (contractors) to bring our money or go back to site”, Bindow said.
On his trip to United States with some northern governors over security and humanitarian support, Bindow said the trip was a success and would add more value in areas of peace and humanitarian assistance to Nigeria and North East in particular.
“I will like to thank United States (U.S.) for its sustained concern about the humanitarian crisis in the North East. The US has continued to show commitment by taking the lead in supporting Nigerian’s efforts in finding lasting solution to the insurgency crisis,” Bindow said.
He also lauded the recent passage of the North East Development Commission bill by the National Assembly, saying that the commission would play a vital role in the reconstruction and rehabilitation of communities affected by the Boko Haram insurgency.
