The All Progressives Congress (APC) has commended Governor Ahmed Aliyu for the construction of several road projects in Sokoto State.

Chairman of the party, Alhaji Isa Sadiq, made the commendation at a news conference in Sokoto while presenting the governor’s scorecard since his assumption of office.

Sadiq said the governor had also completed abandoned projects initiated by the immediate past administration, notably the Rijiya flyover bridge, the only major project initiated by the immediate past administration.

He listed the network of roads constructed to include roads constructed in the Sahara area, Gawon-Nama area, and Ramen-Kura around the Abattoir.

Others are a network of roads at New Arkilla, Mabera, as well as the Tudunwada area, where about 48 roads are currently under construction.

He said the network of roads had also been constructed at Giwa Low Cost.

“There is another Network of roads at Koko Road area, around Saint Paul Primary School, J Allen area, as well as Zamfara, Zungeru and Shinkafi roads near the Government House,” he added.

He said the governor had also embarked on the construction and remodelling of roundabouts in Sokoto metropolis, listing the projects to include the Kofar Taramniya roundabout, round Mairuwa, Gidan Man Ada, Gawon Nama, the New Arkilla roundabout, and the Sama road.

Others are the Justice Ladan Tsamiya road roundabout, the Agaie road roundabout and the Kara area roundabout.

On the housing sector, Sadiq said the difference between Aliyu and his predecessor was clear for everyone to see.

He alleged that the immediate past administration sold off all government houses and could not account for the money, adding that the governor is now building a total of 1,136 houses.

According to him, the houses are made up of 500 units at Gidan Salanke and 500 at Wajake in Wamakko Local Council.
