The Federal Government (FG) has promised Nigerians that ongoing projects will not be abandoned by the incoming administration of President-Elect Bola Tinubu.
Suleiman Adamu, Minister of Water Resources, announced this following the Federal Executive Council meeting on Wednesday, which was headed by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and lasted over seven hours.
He explained that the council has continued to certify numerous contracts worth billions of naira because they have promised to work to serve Nigerians until the end of time.
