What happened
The Delta State Government has threatened sanctions against the contractor responsible for the Orere River Bridge and Edjekota–Ewu–Orere Road projects in Ughelli South Local Government Area. The Commissioner for Works, Comrade Reuben Izeze, warned that the pace of work was unsatisfactory during an inspection of the sites. Izeze stated that the contractor was not demonstrating the required commitment to meet expected timelines.
Why it matters
The warning concerns road and bridge projects valued at over N38bn. The government's threat of sanctions relates to the slow pace of infrastructure delivery, which could impact the state's development plans and investment climate.
