THE Federal Executive Council (FEC) yesterday approved N20.6 billion for road contracts in Plateau and Kwara states.
Minister of Power, Works and Housing Babatunde Fashola briefed State House correspondents at the end of the FEC meeting chaired by Acting President Yemi Osinbajo at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
He was with Minister of Information Lai Mohammed, Minister of Trade and Investment Okechukwu Enelamah and the Minister of Science and Technology Ogbonnaya Onu.
The two roads, he said, are N10.4 billion for the reconstruction of Pankshin-Balank-Yalen-Salak-Gindiri road in Plateau State and N10.2 billion for reconstruction of Sharre-Patigi road in Kwara State.
“Put yourself in his position. He wins a European cup and wants to celebrate with his team,” Mourinho said.
“He wants to get the cup, the medal and be in the pictures but one doctor wants to close him in a small room because of the doping control.
“It’s very hard to control a player in this situation and UEFA should consider this. It’s not a normal match — it’s a cup, a medal, a celebration. It’s everything.
“There was no wrongdoing in his behaviour, just a human desire to celebrate. I feel really sorry for him and I don’t think it’s fair.
“I would (appeal) if I was him. If you do that you have the risk of even more punishment but it’s a decision I will leave with him.”
