Dividend of Democracy For Alhaji Lai Mohammed’s Town

Who says there is no reward for hardwork?

For if there are only two public office holders who have been dogged in their defense of the current administration, the honourable Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed is surely one of them.

The dividends have begun to roll in, even if in a modest way.

This is because, the honorable minister, yesterday flagged off the rehabilitation of township roads in his hometown of Oro in Kwara State.

Media reports indicate that the project, which was awarded by the Federal Ministry of Power, Works and Housing, was initiated by the minister.

:”The project is a dividend of democracy to the people of Oro and an attestation to President Muhammadu Buhari’s commitment to infrastructural development and better life for Nigerians”, the minister was quoted as saying..

“We came this morning to inaugurate the rehabilitation of Oro township roads. When we said the contract had been awarded, some people were in doubt. We thank God that we are witnessing its inauguration today.”

He appealed to the people of the community, particularly the youth, to give the contractor the chance to deliver the project on time, saying “We appeal to you not to exploit the contractor by asking for money before working.”
