Eighteen of Nigeria’s 36 states will benefit from the Rural Access And Mobility Project (RAMP) of the World Bank set out for 2020.The National Coordinator of the programme, Mr. Ubandoma Ularamu, said on Monday at the Bid Opening of Second Phase of RAMP-2 held in Yola, the capital of Adanawa state in northern Nigeria that the third phase of the programme (RAMP-3) would involve agriculture value chain to add value to agricultural produce as well as boosting food production in Nigeria.

He said that the selected 18 states with high potential in agricultural production cut across the six geo-political zones in the country. The coordinator urged contractors, who would not make it in the bidding process not to be discouraged as more jobs would be available in the third phase of the programme.

The national coordinator advised the potential winners to comply with job specification for the benefit of the rural communities. He assured all the applicants of a transparent process as the World Bank would verify all contractors and apply due diligence before the contracts are awarded.

Ularamu also advised successful contractors to ensure speedy completion of the project, adding that the second phase would end in October 2020. He also said that the funds were available for the execution of the work, emphasising that the quicker it was completed the faster the payment. The coordinator said that 49 contractors bided for the seven lots which covered 289 kilometres in the state.

Earlier, Mr. Aliyu Tarfa, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Rural Infrastructure and Community Development, said that the bidding process would be free from state government interference. Tarfa, who is also the Chairman of State Project Implementation Unit (SPIU), assured that the state would fulfill its counterpart contribution obligation, adding that the impact of the programme in the state was tremendous.

In his remark, Mr. Musa Tete, State Coordinator of RAMP-2 said that all road projects in the first phase were near completion. Tete said that the programme had already completed 260 kilometres of roads in the state.

The first phase of the RAMP started in Nigeria with Kaduna and Cross River States while Adamawa, Enugu, Niger, Osun and Imo benefited from RAMP-2.
