Minister of State, Petroleum Resources, Mr Timipre Sylva, has assured those living in the terror-ravaged North East to keep faith with President Muhammadu Buhari, who has an unflinching desire to rebuild the region and rekindle social-economic life of its people. Speaking during the commissioning and handing over of the Radiography Centre at the Modibbo Adama University Teaching Hospital (MAUTH), Yola, Adamawa State, solely funded under the Oil and Gas Sector Intervention Programme, on Thursday, Sylva said the completion and handing over of the projects was a clear demonstration of the Federal Government’s readiness to restore normalcy through the oil and gas sector interventions in providing the necessary infrastructure and services in security, healthcare, education, agriculture, energy, climate action, human capital development and poverty alleviation in the country. Sylva, who harped on the urgent need for collaborations between the government and the private sector said it was only through such efforts as demonstrated by the Ministry of Petroleum Resources, that the nation needs to fast track the needed development across the broad spectrum of “our national lives”.
