The Ecological Fund Office has handed over the recently reconstructed Yola-Mubi bridge at Kaa’a Shiwa and Mile 30 Kwambla along Mubi-Hong road in Adamawa state, charging the community to ensure its proper maintenance and use.
Honourable member representing Gombi Federal constituency in the National Assembly, Honourable Yusuf Buba Yakub, who handed it over on behalf of the Federal Government said the completion of the project was a mark of the urgency attached to the reconstruction, rehabilitation and reintegration of the North East states by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
He recalled that the bridge which was a strategic economic and commercial asset to the area was blown up by the insurgents some years back before the inception of the present administration.
He called on the state, local Governments and community leaders to mobilise the community to guard against indiscriminate dumping of refuse and other unwholesome ecological abuses to ensure that the project served the community for a long time.
Speaking earlier, the Permanent Secretary, Ecological Fund Office, Dr. Mrs. Habiba Lawal, stated that the road was highly degraded after the blow up by the insurgents combined with the impact of flood and erosion, resulting in gullies which made road impassable. She stated that the handing over of the project would ensure effective care, maintenance and sustainability by the community.
The Permanent Secretary was represented at the event by Mr. Mathias Eluma, a deputy Director in the Department of Soil Erosion and Flood Control in the EFO.
The Chairman of Hong and Gombi Local Government Authorities represented the state Government at the occasion, and thanked President Mohammadu Buhari for speedily responding to the request of the community for Federal Government intervention.
