Niger State House of Assembly has called on the executive arm of government to include the construction of the roads linking Kataerigi to Majindadi and the reconstruction of Lemu-Sonmajiko-Beji in the 2024 appropriation bill.
This resolution was reached when the House adopted a motion moved by Hon. Yakubu Abdulmalik Bala, member representing Katcha constituency in the state House of Assembly.
Hon. Bala had argued that the lack of motorable roads in the terrain was affecting the socio-economic activities of Katcha, Gbako, and Bosso LGAs.
He explained that if the roads were fixed, it would help in combating crimes through the symbolic relationships of the local vigilantes by complementing themselves.
He added that the movement of farm produce and other foods and services from one market to another, like the Beji yam and cattle market in Bosso Local Government Area, and fish and rice movement from Katcha and Gbako local government areas, to other bigger markets will be made easy.
