Governor Seyi Makinde led administration in Oyo State has budgeted the sum of N1,201,760,000 for the reconstruction of the Oyo State Governor’s Lodge at No 2, John Kadiya Close, Abuja
The project which is said to be completed in six months time will be constructed through Alternative Project Funding Approach (APFA).
According to the Commissioner for Public Works and Infrastructure, Prof. Kehinde Sangodoyin, the lodge will have the Governor’s Lodge, Deputy Governor’s Lodge, some chalets, fittings and some furniture, which he said will be of modern type, adding that this is part of what the present administration will leave behind as legacy.
“The executive council has approved the construction of the new Governor’s Lodge at No 2. John Kadiya Close, Abuja, which is under APFA.
“The lodge has been there for a while and our government noticed the dilapidated condition. The new lodge will have the Governor’s Lodge, Deputy Governor’s Lodge, some chalets, fittings and some furniture, which will be of modern type. This is part of what the administration will leave behind.
“The edifice will cost the government of Oyo State the sum of N1,201,760,000 only. Once the construction has been awarded, the duration for the completion of the project is just six months. So, it is believed that six months after the award of the contract, the project will be completed and it will have the facilities I have mentioned earlier.”
