CHINESE FIRM TO CONSTRUCT ROAD IN OSUN
Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola has met with a team from Chinese Construction Firm, Hongye Construction Group to perfect talks on road construction in the state.
Governor Aregbasola, who had hinted recently that his administration will reconstruct Osun roads after the rains subside, re-echoed this resolve, when he received in his office the Management team of Hongye Construction Group.
Hongye Construction Group has been given the task to open up and construct some selected roads in Osun State.
The projects include Igbajo-Iresi road in Boluwaduro Local Government, Ajegunle-Orileowu-Gbongan-Apomu-Ikire road in Ayedaade local government, and the road linking Iloko-Ijesa – Ijebu-Jesa in Oriade Local Government, which also serves as a link to Aramoko-Ekiti in Ekiti State.
Aregbesola said the job given to the company would test its technical and financial capacity to partner the state government in the construction of durable roads across the state.
The governor noted that what would define the relationship between the state and the firm would be the flexibility in funding, as his administration would not adopt the customary routine government-contractor relationship.
In a statement to the Chinese firm, he said, “We will be paying on account as you are able to deliver to enable us meet other commitments. On these roads, let us work out how you will mobilise and start your efforts at telling the world that you are a reliable, proficient and award-winning construction company. The only thing is that we have to agree on the flexibility of funding because it won’t be payment on the usual term.”
He recalled that during his recent trip to China, the Chairman of the company gave his assurances to do all within his power to make sure that nothing prevents the beneficial relationship between the state and the Chinese companies.
He also noted that the visit of the company management team to Osun State was a reflection of the high premium and seriousness attached to their engagement.
He expressed hope that the construction company would showcase its capacity to construct roads that would be reference point and a model of excellence in line with the dream by his administration.
The Managing Director of Hongye Construction Group, Mr. Yang Hansheng promised that the company will construct quality roads at minimal cost in Osun, stressing that the partnership with the state government would also assist in providing more job opportunities for citizens in the state.

Does this particular company have a good track record?

How was it selected?

Gbawe:

Aregbesola is taking his time and being very methodical . I have no doubt he has probably selected a good firm with a decent History. In fact, Aregbesola hints in the article that they are an award-winning construction company.

@gbawe
"I would think and I have no doubt" - they all mean the same thing - I don't have a clue.

Why do you people spend so much time with your lips glued to the assholes of these ACN clowns? Aregbesola is a joke, [/b]sadly he is representative of the ACN.
When you are all grown up and you come visit us here in Nigeria you may have a less romantic view of these thugs.

The governor added: “What I made clear to your people during our trip to China was that, as far as engagement and relationship are concern, there is more than enough for us to do together particularly in the area of road development, urban renewal and landscape of our environment and I emphasized that if China could designed their environment the way we have seen it, if they are going to do any work for us, our quality and standard will not be less.
