"We have inspected a lot of projects as you can see. Honestly, I am not happy with the way some of the contractors are going about their assigned projects. We give an ultimatum of one week to the contractor handling the construction of the new lecture theatre to return to site or risk revocation of his contract. Contractors handling other projects in the college who are yet to complete their jobs also have six weeks to do so", he said.
