.... As Umahi calls on Nigerians to acknowledge and appreciate the administration’s sustained commitment to infrastructure development across the six geopolitical zones, particularly in the delivery of quality roads and bridges nationwide.

Three (3) additional roads in Niger State have received presidential approval for their immediate reconstruction by President, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The roads, according to a statement by the Senior Special Assistant on Media to the Minister of Works, Francis Nwaze, are;

* Mokwa–Bida Road (120km)

* Mokwa–Makeri Road (63km)

* Bida–Labata Road (123.5km).

"The three projects total 306.5 kilometres and will be reconstructed using reinforced concrete pavement to ensure durability and long-term value", Nwaze revealed.

The statement also disclosed that "Mr. President has also approved the extension of the Bodo–Bonny Road to connect with the East–West Road. The project will be executed on a dual carriageway capacity, constructed with concrete pavement, and equipped with solar-powered street lighting. The project will be delivered through a competitive bidding process." 

The Minister's Aide further disclosed that "The Honourable Minister of Works, Senator Engr. David Umahi, has expressed deep appreciation to Mr. President for these strategic approvals, noting that the projects fall within critical national economic corridors and will significantly enhance connectivity, trade, and development."

The Minister therefore called on Nigerians to acknowledge and appreciate the administration’s sustained commitment to infrastructure development across the six geopolitical zones, particularly in the delivery of quality roads and bridges nationwide.

Minister Umahi congratulated the governors and good people of Niger and Rivers States, as well as all Nigerians who stand to benefit from these landmark approvals, while urging Nigerians to continue to support, encourage, and pray for Mr. President as the administration remains focused on delivering dividends of democracy to the people.
