The Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA) has said it has completed the rehabilitation work on the hitherto deplorable roads in the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH).

The Managing Director, FERMA, Engr. Nuruddeen A. Rafindadi, revealed this recently when he received a commendation letter from the Management Board of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital.

According to the MD, FERMA was only fulfilling its mandate of making roads friendly and passable to users.

By rehabilitating roads in LUTH, he said there were many more roads across the nation that has been rehabilitated, while others are being monitored for timely intervention where necessary.

“It is on the basis of this that the agency has established the culture of regularly monitoring and evaluating work carried out by the agency as this is key to improving performance. The monitoring and evaluation team is made up of top management of the agency,” the MD said.

He said, a monitoring team led by Engr. Yusuf Alfa of Operation II, recently inspected repairs of failed stretches by direct labour along Yola-Furore Road in Adamawa State and Bauchi-Jos Plateau State Border road and Bauchi-Kari-Yobe State Border road in Bauchi State.

The Kagoro-Manchok-Vom road linking Kaduna State to Plateau and other North-Central States, which serves as a route for the transportation and evacuation of agricultural produce from rural areas to urban centres, thus enhancing the social-economic development of the communities along the road was also visited by another monitoring team.
