Kogi State House of Assembly has summoned Spectrum Engineering Limited to explain why the 6km Ihima/Oboroke/Obangede road reconstruction was abandoned.

In a motion of urgent public importance, Otokiti Zakariya said the dilapidated road had not only hampered commercial activities in the affected communities but also endangered the lives of his constituents and travellers plying the road.

“I want the house to further note that the firm, before the end of the same year, was summoned twice by the House Committee on Works of the 6th Assembly for its failure to comply with contract terms, even after receiving 60 per cent of the contract sum.” Six members of the Enugu State House of Assembly, elected on the platform of the Labour Party , have formally announced their defection to the ruling Peoples Democratic Party in the state.

Controller of Correctional Centre, Kano Command, Suleiman Inuwa, has said no fewer than 100 inmates are on death row in the state.
