Shettima Praises Tinubu's Infrastructure Initiatives

Vice President Kashim Shettima announced that the infrastructure investments by President Bola Tinubu's administration are crucial for connecting Nigeria's economic corridors, enhancing regional trade, and reducing transportation costs. Speaking at an All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign rally in Lafia, Nasarawa State, Shettima highlighted the Akwanga–Jos–Bauchi–Gombe–Biu–Maiduguri Superhighway as a significant project aimed at strengthening economic ties between the North-Central and North-Eastern regions.

He noted that these infrastructure developments are designed to link agricultural and industrial production centers with markets, stimulate employment, and accelerate economic growth across Nigeria's geopolitical zones. Shettima also mentioned the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway and the Sokoto–Badagry Superhighway as part of the administration's commitment to addressing the country's infrastructure deficit.

He assured that the government's fiscal reforms have improved revenue generation and provided more resources for infrastructure development.
