Chairman of Abuja Municipal Area Council ,AMAC, Christopher Maikalangu has mandated the contractor handling the construction and rehabilitation of Sabo Lugbe Road to deliver the project within two months deadline.
The AMAC chairman stated this at the ground-breaking ceremony of the construction of Lugbe Primary School and Lugbe Chief Palace township roads on Tuesday.
He stressed that his administration is committed, as a matter of responsibility, to meeting the needs of the electorate.
He expressed the confidence that AMAC residents will continue to enjoy dividends of democracy and feel the impact of good governance within their various communities as they continue to pay their taxes to the government.
“Few months ago at the ground breaking ceremony of Dnako community, I personally expressed my commitment to make positive impact by providing social amenities across the twelve wards of the Council that will directly impact the lives of my people economically.
“Today’s ceremony here is a confirmation of my promises towards being responsive to the basic need of our people.
“It may interest you to note that as part of the roads revolution we are celebrating today, we are proud to have constructed over 15 asphalt legacy roads across the three zones of the 12 political wards of the Council, all ready for commissioning.
“In line with our vision, this project is focused in making life more meaningful to our teaming electorate. We have also embarked on rural electrification, water supply, health services, women and youth empowerment, as well as enhancing educational development, among others.
“These projects wouldn’t have been possible if residents failed to pay their taxes and levies to government. I therefore appeal to all residents to please, pay their taxes and co-operate with AMAC in order to serve you better,” he explained.
Maikalangu stated that successes recorded in the area of road construction and rehabilitation are in tandem with the FCT development roadmap as demonstrated by the Hon. Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Barr. Nyesom Wike.
He said that his administration had been inspired by the minister to restore hope to the people based on the Renewed Hope Mantra of President Bola Tinubu.
