FERMA Flags-Off Nationwide Road Maintenance In Jos

By


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.

SHORT BUT SAD STORY: The Scorpion And The Turtle

By
O nce upon a time, the scorpion wanted to cross the river. It noticed a turtle on the rock and begged the turtle to ferry it across the river where it could find some succulent green vegetation. The turtle asked, "How can i be sure you will not sting my neck?" "Don't be silly," the scorpion shouted back, "If i did that, we would both drown." The turtle was persuaded and so they both swam (with the scorpion strapped to the turtle's back) towards the green vegetation. When they were almost at the end of the river, contrary to its promise, the scorpion stung the turtle on the neck. Struggling to make it to the riverbank and gasping, the turtle with a look of betrayal asked the scorpion, "Why did you do this to me?" Jumping off from the turtle's back to safety on the land, he replied, "I thought you might dive under the water and drown me." What did you learn guys? I learnt that people find it very hard to trust others.
