No project will be left uncompleted – Niger govt

The Niger state government has said no project started or taken over by the current administration will be left uncompleted at the end of its tenure in 2023.

This was made known in Minna on Thursday at the handing over of the newly renovated Jummai Babangida Aliyu hospital for women and children.

Speaking during the hand over, the state commissioner for health, Dr Muhammed Makusidi, said the project is one of the many promises made by the administration of Governor Sani Bello.

He noted that the decay in the most of the hospitals started long ago and could not be addressed at a go.

“Governor Abubakar Sani Bello reversed the bad maintenance culture we have in the country with the pilot programme of renovation of Jummai Babangida Aliyu hospital for women and children. And first time in the history of the state that we have a facility manager who is managing our projects.”

“The building you are seeing started by the last administration which this administration completed but we saw the need to embark on the renovation of house hospitals. We started work this last with the hope that it will be completed within some weeks but the covid-19 came and the job stopped but in the process we discovered that the hospital needed more than painting. So, we ended up on wholistic renovation of the hospital and provision of other facilities that are lacking in the hospital,” the commissioner said.

Makusidi, however, added that renovation is also going on at the some hospital across the state which includes the, Minna General Hospital, Kotangora General Hospital, IBB Hospital, and Tunga Mogajia Hospital.

He said the maintenance would be replicated in other hospitals across the state.

The CEO, Nineties Ventures, which renovated the project, Dr Mahmud Ajeigbe, said a management consultancy will oversee the selection managers for all the health facilities renovated in the state.
