The Delta State Government has promised to complete all inherited uncompleted projects, as well as those embarked upon by the present administration.

The Political Adviser to the Delta Government, Chief Fred Majemite, made the promise in Asaba in an interview with newsmen.

Majemite said that the state government had paid for most of the contracts it awarded and inherited and urged contractors to give government value for monies expended on projects by doing quality jobs.

The political adviser said, “Unless such action is taken, most contractors will continue to provide sub-standard services.

“That is the reason why most infrastructure that have to do with building and construction do not last in the country; they collapse before their expected life span.”

He appealed for patience and understanding from the people of the state.

Majemite explained that government some times had to borrow money from banks to cushion the effect of hardship on the masses as its overhead was also heavy.

He also called on the Federal Government to provide adequate infrastructure, especially those that had direct bearing on the people.

According to Majemite, the Federal Government is presently doing every thing possible to ensure steady power supply that will fast track the nation’s economy.

He said, “This is because with steady power supply, suffering and poverty will be at its minimal in the country.

“I am sure more people will rather learn trade and be self-employed than waiting for government to provide them with jobs.

“Come to think of it, how many people can the government truly employ.

“Government cannot employ even half of the graduates that graduate yearly from our higher institutions, much more the backlog,’’ he said.
