Minister of Works, Senator Dave Umahi, says major South-East road projects conceived during the colonial era but later abandoned are now being implemented under President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

Umahi stated this on Saturday in Ebonyi while conducting senior journalists and government officials on an inspection tour of Federal Government projects in the state.

This is contained in a statement released by the Director of Media and Publicity, Renewed Hope Ambassadors, Mr Tunde Rahman, on Sunday.

The minister identified the Calabar–Ebonyi–Benue Trans-Saharan Superhighway as one of the flagship projects expected to transform economic activities across the South-East, South-South and parts of the North-Central region.
