The federal government has handed over erosion control and road improvement projects executed at the Amal Pepple Public Servant Housing Estate in Lugbe, Abuja through the Ecological Fund Office (EFO), Office of the Secretary to the Federation (OSGF) to the management of the estate.

The estate currently accommodates about 250 public servants from various Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs).

At the official handover ceremony recently, President Muhammadu Buhari represented by the Head of Service of the Federation, Dr. Folashade Yemi-Esan said the projects are among the federal government’s ecological intervention projects and its concerted efforts and sincerity of purpose in tackling problems of citizens.

The project, which is consisted of the construction of asphaltic roads, curvets, slabs and drainages within the three phases of the housing estate, according to the president, would also reduce dangers to lives and properties associated with erosion and persistent flooding that had been experienced at the estate in recent times.

Earlier, the Permanent Secretary, EFO, Dr. Habiba Lawal said the commissioning and handing over of the project to the estate management was intended to achieve the dual purpose of enabling the host community to take over and exercise ownership over the project, to ensure its maintenance and sustainability.
