Umahi Urges Southeast to Acknowledge Tinubu's Infrastructure Efforts

During the 10th anniversary celebration of De Pinnacle Club International on October 4, 2026, at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, Engr. David Nweze Umahi, the Minister of Works, called on Nigerians, especially those in the Southeast, to recognize and appreciate the infrastructure advancements made under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration. Umahi received an Award of Excellence in Public Service and Infrastructural Transformation at the event, which was organized by Sir David Nwosu and attended by notable figures from various sectors.

He emphasized that the Southeast has seen significant infrastructure projects, including the Enugu–Onitsha Expressway and the Second Niger Bridge access roads, which are crucial for economic connectivity. Umahi noted that while the Second Niger Bridge was completed before Tinubu took office, the access roads were in poor condition, hindering its full economic potential.

He reported that the access road project is progressing, with the Anambra section at 40% completion and the Asaba axis at 35%.
