Nigeria’s  Federal Executive Council (FEC) presided over by Acting President Yemi Osinbajo on Wednesday approved the award of 12 road contracts  to open up the country.

The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr Babatunde Fashola, announced this while briefing State House Press Corps at the end of the meeting.

He said the roads would be in Kano, Bauchi, Adamawa, Borno , Kwara, Gombe, Enugu and Kaduna States as well as bridges on Bauchi – Gombe road.

“The headline figures are in the region of about N126 billion. But I think that is not the story, the story really is what the  contracts do to the economy.

“They restore confidence back to the construction industry.

“Contractors who have been owed for two or three years before Mr President was elected are back in various states.

“They recalled back their workers, they are purchasing quarry, gravel, cement, iron rods; the economy is on its way back to a mend.

“Every place in all of those states, once we mobilise the contractors the money is kept in those states.

“Most of the workers who drive the trucks, who fix the roads that you see add to the use of the roads.

“And so, they aggregate to the total output from each of those states to the national productivity and our national recovery.

“What you then would see is improved journey time which was what we promised you.’’

The Minister said that as the ministry completed more roads Nigerians would travel more efficiently and thereby improve the economy.
