We want to thank President Bola Tinubu for increasing revenue allocation to all the states, including Nasarawa. With the improved revenue, if we are serious about work, all the projects are achievable
Nasarawa State Governor, Engineer Abdullahi Sule, has commended President Bola Tinubu for increasing the statutory allocation given to various states of the federation, saying the new development has empowered his state to embark on more projects for the people of the state.
Sule revealed that his administration is undertaking groundbreaking of several infrastructural projects, including a flyover and underpass in Lafia as its deliberate policy of addressing infrasctural decay in the state.
He made this known at the presentation of allocation letters of 312 housing units to benefitting civil servants under the owner-occupier scheme, at the Government House, Lafia, the state’s capital.
According to this became possible following the improved federal revenue accruing to the state as well as to address infrasctural deficit experienced in the past.
“We want to thank President Bola Tinubu for increasing revenue allocation to all the states, including Nasarawa. With the improved revenue, if we are serious about work, all the projects are achievable,” Sule said.
Governor Sule explained that already, the construction of the flyover and underpass in Lafia has started with the groundbreaking aimed at giving the state capital a face-face-lift
“We are going to build the Emir’s Palace Roundabout an underpass. Today, because we are comfortable, we are not doing an underpass only, we are doing the underpass now at the junction of Total Filling Station and by the time we get to the roundabout, we are building a flyover,” he stated.
He added that the projects would not only beautify Lafia, but also upgrade the status of the city to that of a modern state capital.
