While calling on other investors to come to Benue, Alia said the new administration would encourage public-private partnerships to provide better infrastructure solutions and grow the state’s economy.

Earlier, the Project Manager, Tiza Isaac-Imojime said that the project is meant to address the housing needs of Benue people.

Earlier, the governor had paid an unscheduled visit to some ministries, departments and agencies in Makurdi.

He expressed dismay at the decayed infrastructure and unkempt environment of the MDAs.

He warned civil servants that the time had come to reform and do the right thing, as the due process would be adhered to in running the service.
