In a feature-review of a upcoming State House documentary about President Tinubu’s second anniversary, he made the call.

Leadership is not about the individual; it is about the group. Support someone else if they are already pursuing your ideals. His Excellency Peter Obi, my brother, and I are requesting that they work together. According to a statement from the president’s spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, he stated, according to a statement from him.
He must attend this summit to support President Tinubu’s 2027 election campaign. The South East is content with the President, he declared boldly.
Umahi emphasized that leaders must work together to advance the country’s common good for the sake of the country.
The minister also made it known that Section 1 of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway will be toll-free beginning in December, marking a significant milestone in one of the country’s most ambitious infrastructure projects.
He emphasized that the area is experiencing a brand-new era of infrastructure development under Tinubu, with major projects under construction like the Port Harcourt-Enugu and Enugu-Onitsha corridors.
The South-East did not have a federal presence before. However, we are seeing actual projects right now. The President’s commitment to ensuring fairness in all sectors is demonstrated by the Second Niger Bridge alone, he added.
Umahi claimed that Section 1, which extends 47 kilometers, covers over 80% of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway. The completion of 47 kilometers of the Ahmadu Bello Way to Eleko Junction is.
He noted that the project’s 10-year project would begin tolling in December.
The Igbo man has God-given wisdom, and he is entrepreneurial. He argued that what Ndi Igbo seeks is fairness and that every region is treated equally.
