Similarly, the NEDC MD has summoned the contractor handling construction of some structures at the National Obstetrics Fistula Center in Ningi, Bauchi State for explanations.

Alkali said the need for the contractor to come to the NEDC headquarters for explanation became necessary because the commission needs to know what is causing delay in the completion of the projects.

While inspecting the projects by the Site Engineer and the Management of the Centre, Goni Alkali expressed the desire of the NEDC to see that the facilities were put to use as soon as possible.
