The Minister of Works, Sen. David Umahi, has given contractors constructing federal highways 14 days to mobilise their personnel and equipment back to site or risk lossing their contracts.
The minister gave this warning during a meeting with all contractors handling federal roads on Wednesday in Abuja.
He warned that any contractor who fails to comply with the directive and meet up with the deadline would be kicked out and replaced with other contractors.
Umahi also told the contractors to desist from frustrating the plan of government to move on with the plan to use concrete technology rather than asphalt.
Stressing the need for concrete roads, he said Mr President did a concrete road in Lagos.
“He reminded me about this yesterday. I believe Nigerians will support us on the fact that when you do this asphalt there should be a guarantee on it.
