The House of Representatives Committee on Federal Road Maintenance Agency (FERMA) has promised to revitalize the agency in order to ensure the rehabilitation of roads across the country.<\/p>\n
Hon. Aderemi Oseni, Chairman of the Committee, made the promise the during an interactive session with FERMA management in Abuja.<\/p>\n
He said that the country\u2019s roads are in abysmal condition, causing enormous suffering for Nigerians, impeding economic growth, and ruining the country\u2019s image.<\/p>\n
He added that the public\u2019s perception of FERMA is one of incompetence, corruption, and ineptitude.<\/p>\n
According to the legislator, the committee\u2019s goal is to revitalize, reposition and redefine the agency for it to properly achieve its objectives.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a reality we cannot ignore and thus a perception that must be changed, and it is our duty as representatives of the people to take decisive actions to address this issue and ensure that FERMA becomes a beacon of hope for Nigerians.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur responsibility as the house committee on FERMA is to uphold this principle by working tirelessly to improve the state of our roads, ensuring the safety and convenience of our citizens,\u201d the lawmaker said.<\/p>\n
