Delta State governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, has urged contractors handling housing projects in the state to redouble their efforts and meet completion deadlines.
Okowa made the call Friday after inspecting some ongoing housing projects in Asaba.
The projects inspected were the 2,000-sitting-capacity Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Ecumenical Centre, Delta State Traditional Rulers Council Secretariat and new residential and office complex for top government officials under the Governor’s Office.
The governor, however, lauded the contractors handling the projects for not allowing the lockdown occasioned by COVID-19 to disrupt their pace of work and said that he would sustain regular inspection of projects across the state.
