Umahi Says Igbos Will Lead Nigeria One Day but Not in 2027
Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, has said the South-East will eventually produce a Nigerian President, but not in 2027. In a statement addressing a report titled The Politics of Asphalt: Why is the South East Missing from the Map?, Umahi urged people in the region to rally behind President Bola Tinubu’s bid for re-election.
He dismissed the report as false and misleading, saying it was crafted to paint the Tinubu administration as neglecting the South-East in infrastructure development.
“Politics has taken over, and some people are now trying to mislead the public just to appear as if they’re fighting for the people,” he said. “They ignore the real and selfless projects President Tinubu is carrying out across the country.”
Umahi, who is also the former governor of Ebonyi State, revealed that he has instructed all zonal directors under the Ministry of Works to return to project sites nationwide and document both inherited and new projects, so Nigerians can see the extent of the work being done.
He noted that President Tinubu is focused on uniting Nigerians through fair distribution of infrastructure, regardless of political differences. “Only those willing to open their eyes will see the transformation happening across the country,” he added.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
