Governor of Sokoto State, Aliyu Wamakko has assured the people of the state that his administration will complete all construction projects before the expiration of his tenure next year.

The governor made this known during an inspection of some ongoing projects in the  state.

Special Assistant on Press Affairs, Abubakar Dangusau, directed the State Ministry of Works to sustain its stringent supervision of the projects, as the state government will not condone the slow pace and shoddy execution of projects.

”The state government will not hesitate to wield the big stick on any official or contractor who is found wanting in this direction,” he said.

He reiterated the governor’s resolve to complete all ongoing projects, and directed that all projects be completed on schedule and according to specifications. This, he said, will enable the people of the state reap more dividends of democracy.

The projects inspected were the College of Agriculute, Wurno, the Secretariat complex of Goronyo Local Government and the N2.8 billion 52km Gidan Sale-Tidibale-Maillale Road in Isa and Sabon-Birni Local Governments.

Others were N1.5 billion 37.1km Rundi-Katami Road in Silame Local Government and the 45km Balle-Kurdulla-Niger Republic Road in Gudu Local Government.
