Aabuja—The Director General of Media and Publicity to the Governor of Kogi State, Kingsley Fanwo, has assured the people that the Governor Yahaya Bello-led administration would develop Kogi State and take her to enviable heights.

Fanwo disclosed this while fielding questions from journalists in Abuja, yesterday. He said the state has witnessed significant progress since the inauguration of the administration.
He said: “We need to appreciate the rot in the state before the advent of Yahaya Bello as Governor of the state. However, the governor is not prepared to give excuses. He has rolled up his sleeves to deliver solid developmental projects to the state.

“One of the key achievements of the present administration is the success in getting contractors back to sites of projects, which were hitherto abandoned. The message is clear: contractors must deliver on their mandate. A number of new projects have also been initiated by the administration to boost the economy through infrastructural development.

“Education, job creation through small and medium scale enterprises, agro-business as well as healthcare delivery are key to the New Direction blueprint of the administration. The governor is also looking at the quick-wins that can immediately impact on people’s welfare.”

On the decision of the Governor to institute a Judicial Panel to look into the books of the State from 2003-2016, the Governor’s image maker said there was nothing wrong with the idea, saying only people who perpetrated malfeasance will be jittery.
