- The Minister of Works, David Umahi, has praised the current administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for implementing significant infrastructure projects in the South East, describing them as "visible, tangible, and durable."

Speaking during an inspection of flyovers and roads along the Enugu-Abakaliki Expressway over the weekend, Umahi highlighted the scale of projects in the region compared with previous administrations.

"To the South East people, the projects we are seeing now are unprecedented in scope and quality," he said. "The roads and flyovers are visible and accessible for all to see. The quality of what is being done will continue to speak for itself."

Umahi noted that prior administrations had limited federal projects in the zone, saying that the current efforts have improved inclusion among Nigeria's six geopolitical zones.

He urged residents to acknowledge the progress and use social media to highlight the development, similar to how they previously drew attention to poor road conditions in the area.

"South East is on the rise, and the projects being delivered are benefiting our people," Umahi said. "We are grateful for the visible improvements, and these developments will continue to impact the region positively."

The minister's comments focused on infrastructure delivery and regional development, emphasizing tangible results rather than political rhetoric.
