The Federal Government has revealed that it is committed to emphasizing and supporting the use of indigenous resources, skills, and capacities in the construction industry, prioritizing more opportunities for local contractors to revive the nation’s economy.
The Minister of Works, David Umahi, made this known during his recent inspection visit to some flood-affected sections of the East-West Road in Delta State, which are undergoing remedial work by an indigenous contractor, Messrs. True Tech Nigeria Ltd., as detailed in a statement on the ministry’s website.
Umahi stressed that the Ministry of Works is committed to ensuring value for money, fostering wealth creation, and generating employment opportunities for local professionals and technicians.
