The minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo has charged the contractors handling the construction of the Abuja second runway project for a standardized and long-lasting project.
The minister who visited the site of the ongoing runway project during his inspection of the Abuja airport warned the contractors against using sub-standard materials.
A statement from his media aide, Tunde Moshood reads, “Please we need to be sure you are keeping to standard. How many years guaranty are you giving us?”
While he advised the contractors to up their games, the minister asked for at least 10 years guarantee, saying the government will not rush for any procurement, years, after the completion of the project.
On his part, the Managing Director of the Chinese contractors; CCECC, David Wang, promised to keep to standard by delivering a Hard-Surfaced runway way the minister asked for.
