Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A road project in Plateau State worth N12 million awarded by the Federal Ministry of Works in 2024, has gone under after it was washed away by flood less than a year after completion.<\/p>\n

A report shared by TrackaNG, a civic accountability organization, which enables citizens to collaborate, track and give feedback on public projects in their community, revealed that the project which was for the resurfacing and dressing of the Kogin Kasar Wase-Tofar Road in Plateau State, was abandoned, leaving several portions of the road impassable, thus raising concerns about the quality of work executed.<\/p>\n

The expose disclosed that the project was poorly implemented despite the funds allocated in the 2024 Federal Government budget with most parts of the road already deteriorated, while some sections are no longer motorable, depriving residents of its intended benefit.<\/p>\n

The civic group has now called on the federal government to compel the contractors to complete and remediate the project.<\/p>\n

TrackaNG said, \u201dwe calls on the Federal Ministry of Works, specifically its roads department @FedRoadsNGR, to release full details of the project and compel Sahar Continental Ltd to return to the site to correct the shoddy work,\u201d the organization said in a post on its X handle.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis incident highlights recurring issues with accountability in Nigeria\u2019s public infrastructure projects, where contractors often deliver substandard work despite significant government spending.<\/p>\n

\u201dCitizens are demanding greater transparency and stricter oversight to prevent such failures from recurring,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n
