The governor said his administration focused on infrastructure provision in the quest to achieve ‘Transportation and Traffic Management Pillar T in the T.H.E.M.E. Agenda” of the state.
He said: “In the last one and a half years, the Public Works Corporation, which is the maintenance arm of the government, has rehabilitated over 347 roads.
“It is not out of surprise that 1.161 per cent out of our budget size, a substantial portion of it totalling over N150 billion, is committed to infrastructure provision.”
