After awarded tens of billions of naira contracts will use substandard materials and when the product quickly fade they come up with excuses and lobby for another contract to rectify the issue. When error happens again they come up with another excuse that it’s not their fault and start pointing fingers

Problem everywhere.... When you think Nigerian masses are the problem, just then you realize Nigerian Leaders are the problem, just when the Nigerian Leaders are the problem, then you finally realized that everyone in Nigeria is the problem.

Let's wait to see what will happen to the contractor because Nigeria does not know how to mete out proper justice for big people...
Surely nothing will happen to the contractor if he is with Oshiomole's Assembly of Past Crooks, APC just like the governor who may have staged this skit for cheap popularity.

Daily Post Nigeria

Ifreke Inyang Ifreke Inyang


The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, has said politicians’ sins are forgiven when they join the ruling party.


Oshiomhole made this statement on Thursday, while welcoming new members to the party, at the APC presidential campaign in Benin.

As he reeled out names of those who have defected from the PDP to the APC, he said: “I am told that there are a lot of very very senior people from PDP who have decided to join forces with President Buhari to take the broom to sweep away PDP and to continue to ensure that APC continues to preside all over Nigeria.


“It includes my own brother, my friend who comes from my own clime, Henry Duke Genebe. He is the former organising secretary of PDP and we also have former vice chairman PDP and leader of Edo North of PDP. We also have my brother Chief Esheshi Godwin. He is also former council chairman and my very dear friend. We have quite a number of other leaders who have come.

“We have quite a number of other leaders who have come… in fact, once you have joined APC, all your sins are forgiven.”

Standard organization of Nigeria can only cause you delay if you've been found out by the regulating body not to have used top notch materials or if there is structural defeciency . You just tope yourself and your company in even further Mr site engineer..

Problem with this kind of thing is that middle men have finished the money before it gets to the contractor, so for contractor to see something he has to do substandard

And when this bridge/structure collapse, Government will take the blame for endangering the lives of people. Having caught this contractor, revoke the contractual agreement and involve an independent quality assurance agency to investigate the extent of substandard work done
Before nko na me dem for blame? You give someone a contract and decide not to supervise him, what do you expect? Is there no ministry of work?
Re: Jigawa Governor Umar Namadi Caught A Shady Contractor By Himself (Video) by jattopeter(m): 11:39am On Mar 24, 2025
Same Contract that the Government will take back half of the money from them.

Dont we have civil engineers from Nigeria? Why do we always loose our sanity when talking to someone with white skin? Is he better than our engineers? Serves em right. Forget SON and NAFDAC for the right fee they will certify your product. They re useless.

How many of our bastardized bastardy bastard South East governor get time for this, once they signed the contract boom they no even get time until the day of opening their papa yansh called projects. Idiot governors
Re: Jigawa Governor Umar Namadi Caught A Shady Contractor By Himself (Video) by ruffhandu: 11:59am On Mar 24, 2025
He should sack all he employed to supervise the job because he can't be inspecting everything all the time, spot checks by him is ok, just like he did.
Re: Jigawa Governor Umar Namadi Caught A Shady Contractor By Himself (Video) by owobokiri(m): 12:04pm On Mar 24, 2025
This is why you need a special agency within the ministry of works, staffed with highly trained engineers, to be solely responsible for monitoring contracts of roads and other projects awarded by the government. Very trained and very well paid. If it means contracting this job to another company overseas, just do it. But make sure they are worth their onions. Most of these governors are not engineers and can stand in front of a bad project that will be ruined in a year or so without knowing. Someone trained in doing this with the requisite certifications, should be in charge and not a politician. Quality tests should be conducted before payments..
Rochas did so many roads in Imo state, but none is viable today, solely because of similar problems..

Jigawa state Governor caught the contractor by himself.

Nigerians are enablers in the underdevelopment of Nigeria

The government will pay good money for project and then we get a substandard work from the contractors just because they want to cut down cost to enrich themselves.

This is wickedness. You plastered sand, in a route that experiences flood.

Contractors should face jail term or firing squad for substandard projects.

Ought to be arrested and cuffed already.

Revoke which contract? He doesn't have the guts. If you know how government contracts are awarded, this would not surprise you. Party chieftains, directors, commissioners, tribal chiefs, and godfathers all have their share in the disbursed funds.

By the time the contractor goes to work, he might only have about fifty percent of the original amount at his disposal. Dude must make profit. Thus, the people bear the consequences. Don't be deceived, the governor also gets a share from what is announced to have been released. So, dude can't do shit! cheesy

The biggest problem we have in Nigeria are Civil Servants, not politicians. You imagine SON signing off on the quality of this project undecided
No politicians can steal or do sub standard project without the support of civil servants. If you do a good job and refuse to settle, they will write negative report about your project and delay your payment
It's actually both. Politicians and Civil servants.
-
People have to be trained be trained how to govern the country
-Politician.
People have to be trained how to live under the governorship of the
country. - Civil servants.

So far, nobody has any proper training.
Hence things are just happening anyhow!

No government that is accessory to corrupt practise will come out openly to cast such organization handling the contract, they would rather settle it within an enclosed door.
Notwithstanding such practise has become the norm

Public display of sainthood is not new to a Nigerian politician. He was only shocked that the contractor had a darker conscience than he did. sad

Also suspended your monitoring team indefinitely and investigate them, from the commissioner to the least member of team including relevant agencies involved in the project across board.
Blacklist the company/companies if possible deregister them.
Investigate them as a corporate entity and how they got certified by relevant authorities such as BPE, CAC, ETC.
