Kwara govt hails Ekiti council boss over project execution
The Kwara State Government has commended Ekiti Local Government of the state, saying it is acceding to the yearnings and aspirations of the people of the area in projects location and execution.
The Commissioner for Local Government, Chieftaincy Affairs and Community Development, Arc. Aliyu Muhammad Saifuddeen made the commendation at the official Commissioning ceremony of some new projects embarked upon by the Council.
The projects include a block of office accommodation at the Council Secretariat for Staff use and other completed projects by the Chairman of Ekiti Local Government within the short period of his appointment.
Arc. Saifuddeen attributed the Council’s success story to the leadership style of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq’s non-interference of the State Government or any of its apparatus in the administration of local government system.
It would be recalled that the Commissioner had earlier said the Ministry would initiate awards for the best Three Local Governments, who had performed outstandingly well based on the template for evaluation which ranges from projects execution and acceptability by the benefitting Communities.
According to him, the Ministry will visit all the 16 Council Areas to conduct an on-the-spot assessment of projects done and most especially the impacts it will have on the benefitting Communities.
