Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi, has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for what he described as unprecedented attention to infrastructure development in the Southeast, insisting that the zone now has “every reason to stand with the President.”
Speaking with journalists at Nine Mile Corner after inspecting the ongoing dual carriageway project linking Nassarawa, Makurdi, and Nine Mile on Sunday, September 15, Umahi said the numerous road projects being executed across the region are clear evidence that the Southeast has not been neglected.
“President Tinubu has remembered the Southeast very well, and we have no reason to complain. We need to be wise and engage based on realities, not sentiment. We will change the narrative in the Southeast, educate our people, and take them straight to the center, where Mr. President has already started taking us.” he said.
