Abola explains about the contract

He noted that, the construction work will include; a maternity ward, placenta pit, a medical waste pit as well as a four door ventilated improved pit toilet.

Abola warned the contractor against shoddy work and unnecessary delays saying they will not hesitate to cancel the contract should there be any abuse.
