President Irfaan Ali has issued a $50 million “presidential grant” to Region Six for works to be done on roads, which the regional administration says are urgently needed.
Sources have confirmed that five roads in Whim Village, Number 71 Village, Lancaster Village, Bloomfield Village, and Fort Ordinance Housing Scheme have been ear-marked for rehabilitation.
“We believe that we need to spread our resources so that every single person in the communities benefits,” Regional Chairman David Armogan yesterday told the residents in Whim Village.
