Anambra State Governor Charles Soludo has suspended a road contract issued to NBHH Engineering Company.
When the governor paid an unannounced visit to the site on Tuesday, February 20, 2024, he announced the immediate termination of the road project contract and chastised the corporation for incompetence and delay in delivering nine roads totaling 14.053 kilometers in Okpoko.
Soludo, who addressed the project’s supervisor, stated: “This road was meant to be completed by June of last year. Eight months later, you have failed to finish it. You lack the ability to accomplish the job. The assignment was meant to last nine months, and you were suitably mobilized.
“This is February 20 and you are supposed to have delivered the job. It shows that you are totally incompetent to do the job. After we paid you 50 per cent mobilization. There is nowhere in the country that 50 per cent is paid. Here and here, this contract is terminated and you can remove your things here and tomorrow we will know who will complete this project.”
