— Social Infrastructure
Social infrastructure such as electricity and roads are critical in human endeavours. The Federal Government of Umaru Musa Yar’Adua has taken cognizance of this fact and so has included it as a cardinal component of her seven-point agenda.
The ongoing rural electrification programme of the Federal Government would be pursued with intensive vigour and pressures to ensure that the national grid projects at Ibi, Lissam, Manya, Kumbo, Mararraba, Rafin-Kada and Gindin-Dorowa are accomplished and put to use before the end of my tenureship.
In terms of roads, I will mount intensive pressures on the executive arm to see that Rafin-Kada-Donga road, Mararraba-Bali road are completed. In the same vein, Wukari-Takum road, Wukari-Sarkin-Kudu road, Donga-Baissa road will be influenced for rehabilitation and construction. While I will explore all avenues to get Ibi bridge project commenced.
