“The road extension will benefit students and teachers of the Government Secondary School that has been in existence since 1974, as well as members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) whose lodge is equally also located in the vicinity.
“Fixing the rails at the jetty will not only eradicate the unsafe conditions around the area but will also give the jetty a facelift befitting of a council headquarter,” the statement reads.
He quoted the lead engineer as saying the two projects, which are both located in Brass Ward II, will be completed in the shortest possible time, as all materials have already been made available by the lawmaker.
