GOV. ALMAKURA INSPECTS THE DREDGING OF AMBER RIVER
- NasarawaReports.
Governor Tanko Almakura Visited and inspected the dredging of the 3km stretch of Amber river which connects to the Lafia water works. The project is aimed at removing the blockages like clay buildups and garbages to allow the free flow of the river into the dam.

The Governor explained the different phases of the projects, he says that the first phase of work would be to expand, excavate and dredge the 3km stretch back to the original design, considering an expansion of the width and length, while the second phase would involve the building of drainages that would channel away all the human garbage/ waste that gets into the river.

Notably this river was constructed in 1984, but it's importance has not be sufficiently utilised, since the blockages and abandonment of the project and that is why the Almakura led government have spotlighted this project so as to explore it's benefit for the people of the state.

However, the project will also help improve and provide quality/portable water for people leaving within the Lafia environment.

Eventually, some persons extended their appreciation to his Excellency, Gov. Tanko Almakura for his efforts at ensuring that the state make a plausible paradigm shift away from the lukewarm approach to infrastrutural development.

I was in Maraba recently and I have concluded that the people governing Nasarawa state lack common sense. They should go and look at Ogun state and see how they took advantage of their proximity to Lagos to develop and attract Investors to their state.
The roads are so bad. He should develop infrastructure in Maraba nyanya and smile to the bank without depending on oil money
Nasarawa have the capacity to be self sufficient based on its location.

Keffi-Mararaba axis should be the golden goose for any serious government.
