Building Projects: MHUD Commissioner Charges Staff on Proper Monitoring
The Commissioner for Housing and Urban Development, Dr. Segun Ogunsola, has charged staff of the Ministry to intensify supervision of all ongoing building projects in the state to ensure contractors deliver quality work to the state government.
The Commissioner gave the charge on Tuesday during a review of the Ministry's activities at a management meeting held in his office.
Dr. Ogunsola expressed displeasure with delays noticed at some project sites, stating that no excuse would be considered for poor performance.
He stressed that the Governor, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, would not accept shoddy work from contractors, emphasizing the need for value for money spent on projects.
The Commissioner assured staff that the state government is working to address challenges identified, including training and retraining programmes as well as providing requisite tools for the job.
The Permanent Secretary, Alhaja Risikat Abdulazeez, reminded the staff that their responsibilities as civil servants require them to complement government programmes, projects, and policies, cautioning workers to be more committed, proactive and professional.
Responding, the Director of Quantity Survey, Alhaji Tunde Sarumi, thanked the Commissioner for his advice and promised that the department would step up its duties.
The Director of Building Service, Architect Bilyaminu Lawal and the Director of Public Building and Works, Builder Femi Ibiyinka, highlighted the factors hindering effective supervision and monitoring of projects across the state.
The directors however promised to address areas of concern raised at the management meeting, reassuring that the workers in the Ministry will redouble their efforts to meet the expectation of the state government.
