Some staff members of Julius Berger construction company working on the Abuja-Kaduna-Zaria-Kano Road project have been sacked over indebtedness to the company by President Muhammadu Buhari's government. SaharaReporters gathered that the workers were sacked over non-payment of the agreed contract fee for work already done on the road by the Nigerian government.

According to the government, the N155.7 billion contract was to be funded from the 2017 and 2018 budgets.The project eventually began in June 2018, one month after Buhari established the Presidential Infrastructure Development Fund , to be managed by the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority , to which he also authorised the initial transfer of $650 million for “critical road and power projects.”According to the Minister of Works and Housing , the project would now cost N797.

It's a pity.

Very sad news

The government owe Julius Berger, they keep borrowing to finance infrastructure, yet construction companies are not paid. Is Buhari government borrowing to embezzled?

When this never do well regime awarded this contract they gave completion period of 2yrs

Wahala.

OlanipekunAmos1 It’s actually not only Abuja-Kano Road. All Federal Government construction projects by JBN have actually been put on hold because of lack of funding. I’m talking as an insider with lots of information:

If go deeply concerning Julius Berger you will realise it was military own made company, I think it was IBB time and the company partly own by Nigeria military

What sort of headline is this, sacked over someone elses indebtedness. You guys should sit down and craft you headlines well before publishing

Ooo km Ooo ok k of o M kk k

If majority of taxable Nigerians pay their taxes, the Government would not be owing JB. There is no more National cake!!!

Julius Berger is a scam to our construction works and Nigeria economy!

It's alright

Una never see anything. Make another Baba wey una dey campaign for enter first.

Nigerian Government does not spend money they keep it for themselves

Now those one will turn new bandit cos they know the road very may God help us

Julius berger is the best construction firm in Nigeria.The problem is our people in govt are too corrupt like the image of majority of ordinary nigerians who are always looking for kickbacks .Please go to rivers state and see julius berger finishing road and bridge project in tim

MBuhari you will forever be remembered for your legacy. Every time you are remember a curse shall follow. Multiply that curse by at least 199, 000, 000. It will be enough to go round each member of your family lineage. Amen. The voice of the people is the voice of God.

Sahara reporters are full of hate report against buhari.

This are part of the reason why we shouldn't make same mistake again by voting the wrong candidate come 2023 Please vote wisely Obi/Datti for president 2023

Ok

Nigerian Youths, are running away from criminal minded / lawless security agents in Nigeria like Efcc, Police & Ndlea. Only in Nigeria that being a modern Youth, with phone, computer, car & neat dressing makes you a suspect of Cyber crime. Nowhere in the World, does this happen.

All federal road in south east are death traps

Thesame buhari that said he has fulfilled all his campaign promises 😂😂😂 that man is a joke

🤣🤣🤣 minus south east, every other regions that benefited from that borrowing must pay with their generations especially North and south west.

The man ma yahoooo... He's looting everything til pin

Many of them shouted ' sai baba' in 2015.

Tinubu will continue from where Buhari stopped just so U remember! I feel for D affected peoples. U can't survive in this country with monthly salary at D moment, now no salary how do you start? This regime is a disaster. Anything Buhari touches must definitely not be the same..

Burahi na WA oooooo, only you Asuu strike for 7months plus, price increase in food stuff and aviation fuel now those that work you know wan pay.... meaning unemployment join....abeg why we never hear say all the cow for North don go on strike,? that way equation go balance.....

Julius Berger and FG na 5 & 6. That company don do Nigerian citizens something. I think they are also working on Lagos-Ibadan, since Jonas' government. I beg help me ask them if they will use 20 years to rehabilitate a road that is probably around 130km in lenght?

Na wa o. This same road has been left uncompleted for so many years.

Bad governance will touch everyone, if you like continue voting for tribe and religion and not competence. Good luck to them.

Chaii wahala. More than 10,000 Nigerians have lost their job since Buhari became president. Buhari govt & sorrow even till d last day of Buhari regime Nigerians still ave sometin 2cry about. May God see us thru. Does of U dat voted dis failure u better gather & clean up ur mess o
