Umahi Praises Tinubu for Transforming Southeast Infrastructure

Minister of Works, David Umahi has commended President Bola Tinubu for his positive impact on the Southeast region and Nigeria as a whole. Speaking at the 2025 Sallah celebration with the Ebonyi Muslim community, Umahi applauded Tinubu for addressing years of federal neglect in the Southeast.“Before now, many Southeast states had no federal projects. But today, the federal presence is visible across the region. That is true national integration,” Umahi said.Umahi praised Tinubu for bringing much-needed attention and development to the Southeast region.The Minister believes Tinubu's efforts have improved the lives of people in the region and  commended Tinubu for promoting interfaith harmony and national integration, describing it as "unprecedented."He highlighted the administration's efforts to foster religious and ethnic inclusiveness, which he said has reached an "excellent level."“The relationship between faiths in Nigeria is much better now. It surprised many Christians when the President led a Nigerian delegation to the Pope’s inauguration. That was very unique and historic,” Umahi said.Several Christian leaders including Southeast Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Southeast  Chairman, Rev. Fr. Abraham Nwali attended the Salah celebration which Umahi said underlined the deepening unity. He applauded the President for appointing Southeast natives to top positions—including himself as Minister of Works, the Chief of Naval Staff, and the Minister of Science and Technology.He described the appointment  as meaningful steps toward reintegrating the region into national governance.“We lost political ground in the past, but this government is bringing us back. It’s not yet perfect, but we are no longer left behind. We must acknowledge that and support the President,” Umahi urged.Reaffirming his loyalty to President Tinubu, Umahi commended the President’s unwavering support for the Ministry of Works, calling it a reflection of sincere national leadership. “If you betray such a man, you betray God and Nigeria. I serve both God and the President with the fear of God,” he declared.
