Why Buhari is funding old projects — Lai Mohammed

The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed has revealed that President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration is consciously concentrating on completion of abandoned projects than introducing new ones.
The minister who said this in Eleme, while inspecting the Enugu-Port Harcourt road rehabilitation and reconstruction project said the government was doing so because of the president’s belief in the continuity of governance.

The minister who inspected the project with a team of journalists said the Buhari government believed that projects execution must serve peoples need rather than to score cheap political gains. “We did that consciously because Nigeria is one country and governance is a continuum How will it benefit the people if we abandon this road and go to award other contracts? Most of our projects are those we inherited and we are executing them,” he said.

The minister said it should serve as a lesson and should be imbibed by every administration.
