FG To Review East-west Road, Other Projects In Niger Delta by eyesofgod: 5:14am On Jan 22, 2016
The Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Pastor Uguru Usain said on Thursday that the federal government has set up a committee to audit and review the East-West road and other projects of the ministry in the Niger Delta region.

Usain, who stated this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Abuja, did not however disclose the composition of the committee

” The auditors would examine and determine whether the work was going on as specified and job done so far was commensurate with the amount of money paid to the contractors.

” There are some payments made to contractors that weren’t documented. I only avail myself the opportunity to know at the project sites during questioning. ” he said

NAN reports that some of the Ministry’ s projects were construction of the East-West road and 17 other road projects across the oil producing states, which are also under construction.

Some of the 17 roads projects which are at various completion stages, are the Elele road, the Obehia-Ak­wete-Etinam road and the Gbaregolor-Ogragbene road in Delta State.

Others are the Mbaise ring road in Owerri area and the nine skills acquisition centres which are at various stages of completion, while the 250 out of the 400 housing project have been completed.

It's the sensible thing to do especially with all rhe revelations about the senseless looting of everything in sight by the last administration.

The 2nd Niger bridge, East West road and even Lagos-Ibadan road must be reviewed among other inflated projects.

Jonathan was a sleeping duck,

Keep deluding yourself with your militants bringing attention home crap.

I guess it was the militants that made the appointment of the Niger Delta minister plus others possible too.

Mr Minister, time is of the essence. As long as it's a contract awarded under GEJ govt, always assume the worst. You can never go wrong. The man mumu no get equivalent. He even needs supervised nursing from exploiters like Metuh, et al.

Don't misunderstand me.

I owe you no explanations though. Since you seem to be oblivious of recent happenings in that region.

Nice move. The East-West Road was deliberately left to drag because it afforded some people the opportunity to corruptly enrich themselves. When ex-Governor Amaechi, knowing the importance of the road and how it had dragged, asked that the Niger Delta Ministry hand its construction to the Niger Delta governors, it led to bad blood between him and the Presidency (Jonathan and Orubebe).

EFCC might be needed here to sweep for 'Orubebe mines'. He was a looting lunatic while in charge of the ND ministry.

seems you have forgotten that they have dragged him to court once, but disgraced themselves by not been able to provide any evidence or a single witness. I just hope Buhari doesn`t want to use these reviews and inflated figures as a reason to cancel those project like he did before. We would rather have infrastructures with inflated figures than have none. By the way has buhari awarded any contract since his assumption? Then what did they do with the trillions they borrowed as supplementary for november and december last year?
