The member of the House of
Representative representing Vandeikya/Konshisha Federal Constituency of Benue
State, Rt. Hon Mrs Dorothy Mato with her colleagues in the House Committee on
Works as part of their Oversight Functions, inspected road construction projects
in the North Central of the Federal Republic of Nigeria which invariably covers
her constituency.
The inspection covers the
states of Kogi, Benue, Nasarawa and Plateau and was carried out by Hon Mrs

our people a duty to ensure that good roads are constructed according to world
best practices to curtail and mitigate incidences of accidents and road
mishaps”. “God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.” She said.
