The Minister also disclosed that the administration of Tinubu has completed 260 road projects across the country.

Umahi described the infrastructure push as a cornerstone of Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, aimed at fostering economic stability and improving quality of life.

The Minister also disclosed that the President is set to commission some of these projects in May 2025 to mark his second anniversary in office.
