Okorocha Promises To Complete All Abandoned Projects

Imo State governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, has promised that his administration will complete all ongoing and abandoned projects initiated by the past administration, saying that his administration will not jump into initiating new projects at the detriment of the uncompleted ones that are spread all over the state.

He stated this in Owerri, the Imo State capital, Wednesday, June 29, after inspecting the secretariats of Imo State Council of Traditional Rulers and Association of Local Governments of Nigeria, ALGON, both under construction.

“Let me reiterate that all the ongoing projects will be completed by this administration. This government will not subscribe to the euphoria of 100 days in office which often leads to embarking on and rushing new projects, thus compromising standard. I will rather prefer to settle down and plan for the betterment of the state,” Okorocha maintained.

The governor, who was visibly angry with the poor level of work done by the contractor handling both projects, also sounded it clear to all government contractors that his government will not compromise shady and poor quality of jobs. He therefore advised the contractors to improve on the quality so that both projects will meet the required standard.
