Dimapur, March 25 (MExN): Minister for Roads & Bridges, Kuzholuzo Neinu (Azo) today met the officials of the R&B department at Dimapur after he took charge of the R&B Ministry. The Minister, during his meeting, expressed that the officials of the Department should extend their cooperation and unity for development.
Expressing his concerns over the bad road conditions in the state, Azo said that the concerned Minister and the government have always been criticized for the bad road conditions. He said cleaning up the roads is everybody’s responsibility. He further said that the PWD Department is not a ‘desk work’ department and told the officers to be out in the streets to implement the works and projects of the department.“When it comes to roads, it does not last long, not because of defective DPRs,” he said adding, things go wrong when specifications are not followed. Urging the officers to impose collective work, Azo said he would not compromise with the quality of works. “If you want to be in Dimapur, show your merit and work,” he cautioned them.
He also told them to give positive contribution to the department, but said if they wanted to work like a “one-man army” it will not be possible. He also told the officers to report to him, if anybody is not doing his duty properly. Azo further told the officials that if they do good work they will be rewarded but if they are found hand-in-glove with contractors or involved in corruption, they will be sacked. Parliamentary Secretary for IT, Science &Technical Education, & Taxes, Tovihoto Ayemi was also present at the meeting.
