The Federal Government has expressed its readiness to fight with all federal contractors who are resisting the use of concrete technology in the execution of road projects in the country.
The Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi who stated this during a meeting with contractors handling projects in the North-West said the use of asphalt by some of the contractors is a source of funds depletion for the government and any contractor who is not ready to work with the concrete technology will have no jobs offered to them by the ministry.
The minister commended the contractor handling the ongoing work on the Abuja-Kaduna Road but expressed concerns about the slow pace of the work and the overly technical design by the contractor.
Meanwhile, the Deputy Governor of Kaduna state, Hadiza Balarabe appealed to the Federal Government to complete the road.
