Umahi Orders Arrest Of Contractor Over Shaddy Road Project In Ebonyi

According to  Vanguard, Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State, yesterday, ordered the arrest of a contractor handling Okposi-Umuoghara-Ebiaji Road in Ezza North Local Government Area of the state for executing a shaddy job as against agreed specifications  after collecting N200 million mobilization fees.



The Governor, who gave the order while inspecting the road at Okposi-Umuoghara, further directed that a Ministry of Works official, Solomon Eze, be suspended for two months for lack of proper supervision of the project.

Umuahi, who was dissatisfied with the job, directed his aide de camp, ADC, to ensure that the two officials of the company present during the inspection were handed over to police for prosecution.

He thereafter described the work of the contracting firm as very deceitful and fraudulent, warning that government
would not take it easy with any contractor that takes delight in cutting corners instead of concentrating on the project assigned to it for the interest of Ebonyi people.
