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.

Heir to the Afrobeat icon, and international music star, Femi Anikulapo-Kuti has attributed his success to his tutelage under his father, the late Fela Anikulapo-Kuti; first as a trainee, and later as a member of his band. He told The Nation that his father was his first critic, adding that when he played his first composition to his father, he asked how people could dance to it. The singer reminisced, “Fela asked, ‘So how do you want people to dance to this?’ I only thought of the melody when I composed the song, but on speaking to him, I realised that it was important for Africans to be able to dance to the song.”
