FERMA Flags-Off Nationwide Road Maintenance In Jos



The Federal Road Maintenance Agency (FERMA), has begun a nationwide road maintenance exercise on federal roads across the nation.

During an inspection tour of Andaha, Akwanga-Jos Road, the Managing Director of FERMA, Mr Gabriel Amuchi, said the maintenance is just an intervention to make sure the federal roads that have failed are motorable all year round.
Mr Amuchi was in the company of the Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Works, Mr. Dauda Kigbu to monitor the exercise.
While Mr Amuchi noted that some of the roads have been built over the past 25 years, Mr Kigbu said the exercise by FERMA justifies the need for more funding to close the gap, while pushing for the reconstruction of some of the federal roads.
