In his response, Governor Fintiri reiterated that project execution has remained a top priority since he assumed office. He assured residents that his government would continue to deliver good governance until the last day of his tenure.

“Our philosophy is clear: no one is left behind and nothing is left untouched. We are determined to ensure that no community in Adamawa State feels isolated from the dividends of governance,” Governor Fintiri declared.

Earlier, the State Commissioner for Works and Energy Development, Adamu Atiku Abubakar, detailed the scope of the project.
