The Federal Government has ordered the closure of the

Second Niger Bridge and sections of other major roads earlier

opened to ease traffic for the 2022 Christmas celebrations.

Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola gave the

directive in Abuja.

This, he said is to enable contractors return to site to

complete work on the various projects.

The directive was contained in a statement signed by

Engineer Folorunso Esan, on behalf of the Permanent

Secretary of the Ministry.
