They’ve collected N71bn, but the job is terrible, Umahi queries work on East-West road

Sen. Dave Umahi, the minister of works, on Wednesday, issued an order to immediately halt construction at the Kaiama stretch of the East-West route in Bayelsa State in response to concerns about the contractor’s subpar work.

While expressing his fury over the situation, Umahi claimed that the contractor was providing subpar work while getting N71 billion.

Umahi addressed the media as he inspected important road developments, such as the multibillion-naira Bodo-Bonny route and the Port Harcourt-Enugu road in Rivers State.
