press release

The leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has commended the Minister of Works, Arc. Mike Onolememen for turning down a mouth-watering N33 billion proposal by a contracting firm for underwater inspection of a section of the Third Mainland Bridge, Lagos following his discovery that the actual job will require only N5 billion.

PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh in a statement yesterday said the rejection of the proposal by the minister is yet another testament to the anti-corruption stance of the President Goodluck Jonathan-led PDP administration.
