The Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA) posted an invitation on 18 October for the Bureau of Public Procurement to witness the opening of bids for urgent rehabilitation and maintenance of critical federal roads and other work items under phase two of the 2026 appropriation. The linked letter, dated 5 October, set the exercise for noon on Monday, 19 October, at Newton Park Hotel & Resort Annex in Wuse II, Abuja.

The published notice and letter establish the date, venue and broad procurement description, but do not identify road sections, contract values, awarded contractors or the outcome of the opening. They describe an invitation to the procurement bureau to witness the exercise, not a public invitation for vendors to submit new bids.
