The Department of Resettlement and Compensation has embarked on the opening of Access Roads to some of her schemes   within the satellite towns of Karshi, Orozo and Gidan Daya. The Director, ESV Perpetua Ohammah made this known in Abuja recently when she visited the site in company of some management staff of the department, to inspect ongoing work to ascertain the level of completion and what needs to be done.

According to her, the move became necessary in order to fast track development of infrastructure that will help resettle some affected indigenes with allocations in the Area.

She lamented that most of the schemes by her predecessor still remained inaccessible to their owners many years after, due to complaints of paucity of funds by the relevant Agency, hence her resolve to wade in.

She further stated that despite the fact that provisions of infrastructure such as road network was outside her purview in terms of policies, she was determined to do everything humanly possible to make the lives of the allottees meaningful by contributing to development of the city.

Hear her" Budgetary or no Budgetary provisions, we are ready and determined to make the lives of Nigerians under our care better and easier especially all those relocated many years ago who have not been able to access their plots"

The Director revealed that the work was made possible through collaboration with Department of Development control and Engineering Services even as she praised the Honourable Minister for challenging Directors to think outside the box, the results of which is this project and many others to come.

Earlier, the Director had stopped over at the Chief of Karshi’s Palace, Ismaila Muhammad to pay homage and keep him abreast with the workings in the department. The Chief commended the Director and her team for their efforts to see that the people are properly relocated through the opening up of roads which will bring them closer to development.
