Anambra contractors jittery as Soludo commences roads inspection

…The Daily Vendor gathered that most contractors in the state have consequently mobilized fully to site for fear of having their contracts terminated

Fear have gripped contractors carrying out road projects in Anambra state following speculations that more non performing contractors may lose their jobs.

Recall that the contractor handling the Ekwulobia – Isuofia road lost his contract following termination of the ongoing project by Gov Charles Soludo yesterday.

The Daily Vendor gathered that most contractors in the state have consequently mobilized fully to site for fear of having their contracts terminated.

Reacting, Press Secretary to the Governor Mr Christian Aburime described his principal as a stickler to standards and quality, adding that he had paid the contractors up front and as such have no reason not to deliver.

He said, “There is nothing to fear about if a contractor is doing his job based on specifications as stipulated in the contract agreement.

“This is Anambra tax payers money at work and we cannot allow public funds to be wasted by non performing contractors and the governor will not fail to use the big stick where necessary.”

Aburime further explained that every contract has durations and contractors must stick to those durations and deliver quality road construction to Anambra people.

He also urge the public to disregard rumors alleging that the termination of the Ekwulobia – Isuofia road contract was done out of malice, insisting that the rumor peddlers were bent on undermining Soludo’s drive to provide quality basic infrastructures to the masses.

“It is not true because that contract was to have been completed by October this year but the contractor failed and some rumor mongers went to town with the headline that it was done in bad taste”

“Gov Charles Soludo cannot play politics with the interest and well being of Anambra people and he wish to reassure all and sundry that his administration remains committed towards taking governance to the grassroot” he noted.
