FG budgets N300b for roads in 2020

Nigeria has earmarked N300 for road construction and rehabilitation to ease movement of goods and services across the federation next year.

The Minister of State for Works and Housing, Abubakar Aliyu, made the disclosure yesterday when the Niger Delta Activist Forum paid him a courtesy visit in Abuja.

He enjoined the public to always seek necessary information and clarification from the ministry to be properly guided on infrastructure put in place by government to make life more meaningful for Nigerians.

Aliyu hinted that those roads that had reached 80 per cent completion level would be given priority in 2020, assuring that no ongoing project would be abandoned.
