The Federal Government has given contractors handling road projects that have been abandoned, a fourteen-day ultimatum to return to sites or face revocation of the contracts.
Vanguard added that the government also threatened to drag contractors ganging up against the use of concrete for road construction to the anti-crime agencies, including the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other related offences, ICPC.
The Minister of Works, Senator Dave Umahi, disclosed this after meeting, behind closed-doors, with President Bola Tinubu, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, yesterday.
Umahi, who vowed not to succumb to the gang-up and blackmail from contractors, said President Tinubu had given him the support for the use of concrete in reinforcement.
