Rivers warns contractors against substandard projects

By Rosemary Nwisi, Port Harcourt

Rivers State Commissioner for Education Prof. Kaniye Ebeku has warned contractors handling school projects against executing substandard jobs.

Prof. Ebeku, who spoke during a meeting with contractors handling school projects in Bonny, Oyigbo and Abua/Odual Local Government Areas, urged them to complete the projects by the March deadline.

A statement yesterday by his media aide, Faustina Nwanekwu, reads: “The government will not accept projects poorly executed or condone any further delay in the execution of ongoing school projects.”

He cautioned them against using substandard materials, and urged them to complete the projects to time so they can be inaugurated by March.

Ebeku also warned against abandoning government projects despite receiving tranches of the contractual fee, saying any contractor who does will face the wrath of the law.
